American Bar Association's reported carbon emissions

The American Bar Association (ABA) currently does not have available carbon emissions data, as indicated by the absence of specific figures in their reporting. Consequently, there are no recorded emissions totals, including Scope 1, 2, or 3 emissions, nor any significant reduction targets or achievements documented in their climate commitments. The ABA has not outlined any specific climate pledges or initiatives aimed at reducing carbon emissions. Without concrete data or commitments, it is challenging to assess their environmental impact or progress in addressing climate change. As the ABA operates within the legal sector in the US, it is essential for organisations in this industry to consider their carbon footprint and engage in sustainability practices. However, at this time, the ABA has not provided any information regarding their climate commitments or emissions data.
