The AA's reported carbon emissions

The AA, headquartered in Great Britain, currently does not have any publicly available carbon emissions data for the most recent year, nor does it report specific reduction targets or initiatives. As of now, there are no emissions figures, such as Scope 1, 2, or 3 emissions, nor any commitments to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. Without specific data or commitments, it is unclear how The AA is addressing its carbon footprint or contributing to climate action within the automotive and roadside assistance industry. The absence of reported emissions and reduction strategies highlights a potential area for improvement in transparency and accountability regarding environmental impact.
