Broadcom Corporation's reported carbon emissions

Inherited from Broadcom Inc.

Broadcom Corporation, headquartered in the US, currently does not report specific carbon emissions data, as indicated by the absence of emissions figures in kg CO2e. The company is a current subsidiary of Broadcom Inc., which may influence its climate commitments and reporting practices. While there are no documented reduction targets or climate pledges from Broadcom Corporation itself, it is important to note that any potential climate initiatives or targets may be inherited from its parent company, Broadcom Inc. This relationship suggests that Broadcom Corporation may align with broader corporate sustainability goals set by its parent, although specific details are not available. As a subsidiary, Broadcom Corporation's climate strategy may be informed by the initiatives and performance metrics of Broadcom Inc., which could include participation in frameworks such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP). However, without explicit data or commitments from Broadcom Corporation, the specifics of its climate actions remain unclear. In summary, while Broadcom Corporation is part of a larger corporate family that may have climate commitments, it currently lacks publicly available emissions data and defined reduction targets.
