Arabsat's reported carbon emissions

Arabsat, headquartered in Saudi Arabia, currently does not have publicly available data on its carbon emissions, as no specific emissions figures have been provided. Additionally, there are no documented reduction targets or climate pledges outlined in their initiatives. This lack of information suggests that Arabsat may still be in the early stages of formalising its climate commitments or reporting its emissions data. As the satellite communications industry increasingly prioritises sustainability, it is essential for companies like Arabsat to establish clear climate goals and transparency in emissions reporting to align with global climate action efforts.
