Despite these emissions figures, Annaly Capital Management has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing its carbon footprint. The company has not reported on Scope 1 or Scope 3 emissions, indicating a limited scope of emissions data. As part of its climate commitments, Annaly Capital Management has not publicly engaged in initiatives such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other industry-standard climate pledges. The absence of such commitments suggests that the company may be in the early stages of developing a comprehensive climate strategy. Overall, while Annaly Capital Management has made strides in reporting its emissions, the lack of reduction targets and broader climate initiatives highlights an area for potential growth in its environmental responsibility efforts.
