Waldemar Link GmbH & Co. KG, headquartered in Germany, currently does not have publicly available carbon emissions data or specific reduction targets. The company has not disclosed any absolute emissions figures, including Scope 1, 2, or 3 emissions. Without concrete data, it is challenging to assess their climate commitments or achievements in reducing carbon emissions. However, the absence of reported emissions data suggests that the company may be in the early stages of developing its climate strategy or may not yet have formalised its commitments to carbon reduction.
