TAM S.A.'s reported carbon emissions

Inherited from LATAM Airlines Group S.A.

TAM S.A., headquartered in Brazil, currently does not report specific carbon emissions data, as indicated by the absence of emissions figures in kg CO2e. The company is a current subsidiary of LATAM Airlines Group S.A., which may influence its climate commitments and performance metrics. While TAM S.A. has not established its own reduction targets or specific climate pledges, it is important to note that any climate initiatives or targets may be inherited from its parent company, LATAM Airlines Group S.A. This relationship suggests that TAM S.A. could align with broader sustainability goals set by LATAM Airlines, although specific details on these initiatives are not provided. As a part of the aviation industry, TAM S.A. operates within a sector that is increasingly focused on reducing carbon emissions and enhancing sustainability practices. The lack of direct emissions data and reduction targets highlights a potential area for improvement in transparency and commitment to climate action.
