Root Foods's reported carbon emissions

Root Foods currently does not have available carbon emissions data for the most recent year, nor do they have specified reduction targets or climate pledges. Without specific emissions figures or commitments, it is challenging to assess their carbon footprint or climate strategy. However, the absence of data may indicate an opportunity for Root Foods to enhance transparency and set measurable climate goals in line with industry standards. As the food industry increasingly prioritises sustainability, Root Foods may consider establishing clear emissions reduction targets to align with global climate initiatives.
