Transport America, Inc.'s reported carbon emissions

Transport America, Inc., headquartered in the US, currently does not have specific carbon emissions data available for the most recent year. The company is a current subsidiary of TFI International Inc., which may influence its climate commitments and emissions reporting. As of now, Transport America has not established any documented reduction targets or initiatives related to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. This lack of specific targets suggests that the company may still be in the early stages of formalising its climate strategy. Given the absence of direct emissions data and reduction commitments, it is essential for Transport America to consider developing a comprehensive climate action plan. This could include setting measurable targets for reducing Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions, aligning with industry standards, and potentially leveraging the sustainability initiatives of its parent company, TFI International Inc., to enhance its environmental performance.
