CircleUp's reported carbon emissions

CircleUp, 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 CircleUp Network, Inc., which may influence its climate commitments and reporting practices. As of now, CircleUp has not established any documented reduction targets or initiatives, nor does it participate in recognised frameworks such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP). This lack of publicly available data suggests that CircleUp is still in the early stages of formalising its climate strategy. In the context of the industry, many companies are increasingly adopting ambitious climate commitments, and it is anticipated that CircleUp will align with these trends in the future. However, without specific emissions data or reduction targets, it is challenging to assess their current impact or future commitments regarding carbon emissions.
