Rational's reported carbon emissions

Rational, headquartered in the US, currently does not report any carbon emissions data, as indicated by the absence of specific figures in kg CO2e. Additionally, there are no documented reduction targets or climate pledges associated with the organisation. This lack of data suggests that Rational may not have established formal commitments to reduce its carbon footprint or may be in the early stages of developing such initiatives. In the context of industry standards, it is essential for companies to set measurable targets and report emissions transparently to align with global climate goals. Without specific emissions data or reduction commitments, Rational's climate strategy remains unclear.
