Despite these figures, Qrd has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives, as indicated by the absence of documented reduction targets or climate pledges. This lack of formal commitments may reflect a broader industry context where many companies are still developing comprehensive climate strategies. Overall, while Qrd's emissions data highlights areas for improvement, the absence of clear reduction targets suggests a need for enhanced climate action and accountability moving forward.
