Applied DNA Sciences's reported carbon emissions

Applied DNA Sciences, headquartered in the US, currently does not report any specific carbon emissions data, as indicated by the absence of emissions figures in kg CO2e. Furthermore, there are no documented reduction targets or climate pledges associated with the company. This lack of data suggests that Applied DNA Sciences may not have established formal commitments to reduce carbon emissions or may not publicly disclose such information. In the context of climate action, many companies are increasingly adopting science-based targets and participating in initiatives like the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) to align their operations with global climate goals. However, without specific commitments or emissions data, it is unclear how Applied DNA Sciences positions itself within this evolving landscape of corporate climate responsibility.
