The Hertz Corporation's reported carbon emissions

Inherited from Hertz Global Holdings, Inc.

The Hertz Corporation, headquartered in the US, currently does not have specific carbon emissions data available for the most recent year. As a current subsidiary of Hertz Global Holdings, Inc., any emissions data or climate commitments would be inherited from this parent organisation. Hertz Global Holdings, Inc. has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or achievements related to carbon emissions. Additionally, there are no documented climate pledges or initiatives such as Science Based Targets (SBTi) or CDP commitments that have been reported for The Hertz Corporation at this time. As part of the broader industry context, it is essential for companies like Hertz to engage in climate action and set measurable targets to reduce their carbon footprint, particularly in light of increasing regulatory pressures and consumer expectations for sustainability. However, without specific data or commitments, it is challenging to assess their current impact or future direction in climate action.
