Desco's reported carbon emissions

Desco, headquartered in California, currently does not report any carbon emissions data, as there are no available figures for kg CO2e emissions. Additionally, there are no documented reduction targets or climate pledges outlined in their sustainability initiatives. This absence of data suggests that Desco may still be in the early stages of developing a comprehensive climate strategy or reporting framework. In the context of industry standards, it is essential for companies to establish clear climate commitments and reduction targets to align with global efforts to mitigate climate change. Without specific emissions data or targets, Desco's climate commitments remain unclear, highlighting an opportunity for the organisation to enhance its sustainability practices and transparency in emissions reporting.
