CEC's reported carbon emissions

CEC's carbon emissions data indicates that the most recent available figures date back to 2007, with no specific emissions numbers disclosed for that year. The organisation has not provided detailed information regarding Scope 1, 2, or 3 emissions, nor have they outlined any specific reduction targets or achievements. In terms of climate commitments, CEC has not established any documented reduction initiatives or pledges, which suggests a lack of formalised strategies to address their carbon footprint. The absence of specific emissions data and reduction targets highlights a potential area for improvement in their climate action efforts. As CEC is headquartered in California, a region known for its progressive climate policies, there may be opportunities for the organisation to align with local and global sustainability goals. However, without concrete data or commitments, it remains unclear how CEC plans to contribute to reducing greenhouse gas emissions in the future.
