Churchill Downs Incorporated's reported carbon emissions

Churchill Downs Incorporated currently does not have available carbon emissions data, as indicated by the absence of specific figures for kg CO2e. Additionally, there are no documented reduction targets or climate pledges outlined in their initiatives. This lack of data suggests that the company may not have established formal commitments to reduce carbon emissions or may not publicly disclose such information. In the context of the industry, many organisations are increasingly adopting science-based targets and sustainability initiatives to address climate change. However, without specific emissions data or commitments from Churchill Downs Incorporated, it is challenging to assess their environmental impact or progress in this area.
