Uni-Select Inc.'s reported carbon emissions

Inherited from LKQ Corporation

Uni-Select Inc., headquartered in Canada, currently does not report specific carbon emissions data, as indicated by the absence of emissions figures. The company is a current subsidiary of LKQ Corporation, which may influence its climate commitments and reporting practices.
