Grubhub's reported carbon emissions

In 2021, Grubhub reported total carbon emissions of approximately 371,800 kg CO2e from Scope 1, 2,197,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2, and a significant 366,232,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. This data is cascaded from Grubhub Inc., its parent company, reflecting the company's comprehensive approach to tracking its carbon footprint across all scopes. Despite the substantial emissions figures, Grubhub has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing its carbon emissions. The absence of defined climate pledges or Science-Based Targets Initiative (SBTi) commitments indicates a potential area for growth in their sustainability strategy. As a current subsidiary of Grubhub Inc., the company is positioned within a broader corporate family that may influence its climate commitments and reporting practices. However, without explicit targets or reduction initiatives, Grubhub's climate strategy remains unclear.
