CAPES's reported carbon emissions
CAPES, headquartered in Brazil, currently does not have available data on its carbon emissions, as no specific emissions figures have been provided. Additionally, there are no documented reduction targets or climate pledges outlined in their initiatives. This lack of information suggests that CAPES may still be in the early stages of developing a comprehensive climate strategy or reporting framework. As the global focus on sustainability intensifies, it is crucial for organisations like CAPES to establish clear emissions data and set ambitious reduction targets to align with industry standards and contribute to climate action.
