ARD's reported carbon emissions
ARD currently does not have any available carbon emissions data, as indicated by the absence of specific figures in kg CO2e. Additionally, there are no documented reduction targets or climate pledges associated with the organisation. Without emissions data or commitments, it is challenging to assess ARD's climate impact or initiatives. In the context of industry standards, many organisations are increasingly adopting Science-Based Targets (SBTi) and participating in initiatives like CDP and RE100 to enhance their sustainability efforts. However, ARD has not reported any such commitments or inherited data from a parent company. As a result, the organisation's climate strategy remains unclear at this time.

Reduction initiatives & disclosure networks
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.
ARD is not participating in any of the initiatives that we track. This may change over time as the company engages with new initiatives or updates its commitments. DitchCarbon will update this information as it becomes available.
