Datadog's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, Datadog reported total carbon emissions of approximately 85,000,000 kg CO2e, with emissions distributed across various scopes. Specifically, Scope 1 emissions accounted for about 529,000 kg CO2e, while Scope 2 emissions totalled approximately 1,670,000 kg CO2e. The majority of their emissions, approximately 84,255,000 kg CO2e, fell under Scope 3, which includes categories such as business travel (about 30,161,000 kg CO2e) and purchased goods and services (approximately 30,161,000 kg CO2e). Despite the significant emissions figures, Datadog has not disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing their carbon footprint. The absence of defined climate pledges or science-based targets suggests that while the company is aware of its emissions, it may still be in the early stages of formalising its climate commitments. As a leading player in the tech industry, Datadog's emissions profile highlights the importance of addressing carbon impacts, particularly in Scope 3, which often represents the largest share of emissions for technology firms.
