Cotopaxi is a signatory of the Climate Pledge, having signed on 31 May 2022. This commitment, cascaded from its parent organisation Global Uprising, PBC, signifies an intention to meet the Paris Agreement's goals and reduce net-zero carbon emissions by 2040. While specific reduction targets beyond the Climate Pledge are not detailed, the company's comprehensive reporting across all three scopes indicates a focus on understanding and managing its environmental footprint within the wearing apparel industry. It is important to note that data for some Scope 3 categories, specifically "purchased goods and services" and "upstream transportation and distribution," were identified as missing for the reported years.
