SNAPCHAT's reported carbon emissions
As of the latest available data, SNAPCHAT has not disclosed specific carbon emissions figures, including Scope 1, 2, or 3 emissions, nor have they set formal reduction targets or commitments. This lack of detailed emissions data suggests that the company may still be in the early stages of developing a comprehensive climate strategy. In the context of the industry, many tech companies are increasingly prioritising sustainability and transparency regarding their carbon footprints. While SNAPCHAT has not yet made significant public commitments or outlined specific initiatives to reduce emissions, it is essential for them to align with industry standards and expectations to enhance their environmental responsibility. Overall, without concrete emissions data or reduction targets, it remains unclear how SNAPCHAT plans to address its climate impact moving forward.
