DraftKings, headquartered in the US, currently does not have publicly available carbon emissions data for the most recent year, nor does it report specific reduction targets or initiatives. As of now, there are no documented commitments to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. The absence of emissions data suggests that DraftKings may still be in the early stages of formalising its climate commitments. Without specific figures or targets, it is challenging to assess their overall impact on climate change or their strategic approach to reducing carbon emissions. In the context of the gaming and sports betting industry, many companies are increasingly focusing on sustainability and carbon reduction. DraftKings may need to align with these industry trends to enhance its environmental responsibility and transparency.
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.
DraftKings 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.
