Progressive Waste Solutions Ltd.'s reported carbon emissions

Inherited from Waste Connections, Inc.

Progressive Waste Solutions Ltd., headquartered in Canada, currently does not have specific carbon emissions data available for the most recent year. The company is a merged entity and inherits its emissions data and climate commitments from its parent organisation, Waste Connections, Inc. As of now, there are no documented reduction targets or climate pledges directly attributed to Progressive Waste Solutions Ltd. However, it is important to note that any climate initiatives or targets may be influenced by the broader commitments of Waste Connections, Inc., which operates under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) framework. Given the absence of specific emissions data and reduction targets, Progressive Waste Solutions Ltd. is positioned within an industry context that increasingly prioritises sustainability and carbon footprint reduction. The company may align its strategies with those of its parent organisation to enhance its climate commitments in the future.
