Rigaku's reported carbon emissions

Inherited from Atom Investment, L.P.

Rigaku, headquartered in Japan, currently does not have available emissions data for the most recent year. As a current subsidiary of Rigaku Corporation, any potential emissions data would be cascaded from the parent company. However, there are no specific reduction targets or climate commitments outlined in the available information. The company has not reported any significant climate initiatives or pledges, and there are no details regarding Scope 1, 2, or 3 emissions. As such, Rigaku's climate commitments remain unclear, and further information would be necessary to assess their environmental impact and sustainability efforts.
