As of the latest available data, Disney has not publicly disclosed specific carbon emissions figures for the most recent year. Consequently, there are no absolute emissions numbers to report, including details on Scope 1, 2, or 3 emissions. In the absence of specific emissions data, it is important to note that Disney has made various climate commitments aimed at reducing its environmental impact. However, no specific reduction targets or initiatives have been detailed in the provided information. This lack of data suggests that while Disney may be engaged in sustainability efforts, the specifics of their carbon reduction strategies and achievements remain unclear. Overall, Disney's approach to climate action appears to be in line with industry standards, but without concrete figures or defined targets, it is difficult to assess the effectiveness of their commitments.
Companies disclose and commit to reducing emissions to show they are serious about reducing emissions impact over time. They can also help a company track its progress over time.
Disney is not committed to any reduction initiatives we track. This may change over time as the company engages with new initiatives or updates its commitments. DitchCarbon will update this information as it becomes available.
