In 2019, U.S. Xpress, Inc. reported carbon emissions data inherited from its parent company, U.S. Xpress Enterprises, Inc. However, specific emissions figures for Scope 1, 2, and 3 were not disclosed. The company did provide a carbon dioxide emissions factor of approximately 0.103 grams per mile, indicating its operational emissions intensity. Currently, U.S. Xpress has not set any formal reduction targets or climate pledges, nor does it participate in initiatives such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). This lack of specific commitments may reflect broader industry trends where logistics and transportation companies are increasingly scrutinised for their environmental impact. As a current subsidiary of U.S. Xpress Enterprises, Inc., U.S. Xpress's climate commitments and emissions data are influenced by the parent company's strategies and reporting practices. The absence of detailed emissions data and reduction initiatives highlights an opportunity for U.S. Xpress to enhance its sustainability efforts and align with industry standards for climate action.
Companies disclose and commit to reducing emissions to show they are serious about reducing emissions impact over time. They can also help a company track its progress over time.
