Poly's reported carbon emissions

In 2021, Poly reported total carbon emissions of approximately 39,000,000 kg CO2e, comprising 670,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1, 10,422,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2, and 33,900,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. This data is cascaded from its parent company, Plantronics, Inc., reflecting the broader corporate family’s environmental impact. Poly has not disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives through the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. The absence of documented reduction strategies suggests a need for enhanced climate commitments within the organisation. As a current subsidiary of Plantronics, Inc., Poly's emissions data and climate strategies are influenced by the overarching policies and practices of its parent company. The company operates within a sector that increasingly prioritises sustainability, indicating potential for future commitments to reduce its carbon footprint.
