BigCommerce's reported carbon emissions

BigCommerce, headquartered in the US, currently does not provide specific carbon emissions data for the most recent year, nor does it have documented reduction targets or initiatives. The absence of emissions data suggests that the company may still be in the early stages of formalising its climate commitments. While there are no specific figures available, BigCommerce is part of a broader industry context where many companies are increasingly focusing on sustainability and carbon reduction. The company has not reported any emissions inherited from a parent organisation, indicating that its climate strategy is developed independently. As of now, BigCommerce has not disclosed any commitments to initiatives such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. This lack of information highlights an opportunity for the company to enhance its transparency and commitment to climate action in the future.
