Avalara's reported carbon emissions

Avalara, headquartered in the US, currently does not report any specific carbon emissions data, as indicated by the absence of emissions figures. Consequently, there are no recorded emissions in terms of Scope 1, 2, or 3. Additionally, the company has not established any documented reduction targets or commitments to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. As there is no available data on emissions or reduction initiatives, Avalara's climate commitments remain unclear. The company may be in the early stages of developing its sustainability strategy or may not have publicly disclosed its climate-related efforts. In the context of the industry, many organisations are increasingly focusing on transparency and accountability regarding their carbon footprints, and it is anticipated that Avalara will align with these trends in the future.
