Doordash's reported carbon emissions
In 2022, DoorDash reported total carbon emissions of approximately 22,000,000 kg CO2e, comprising about 3,565,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and about 18,727,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions. This marked a significant increase from 2021, when the company emitted about 6,373,000 kg CO2e in total, with 1,078,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 5,793,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2. Despite the increase in emissions, DoorDash has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at mitigating its carbon footprint. The absence of defined climate commitments or science-based targets suggests that the company may still be in the early stages of developing a comprehensive climate strategy. As a major player in the food delivery industry, DoorDash's emissions profile highlights the importance of addressing both direct and indirect emissions to align with global climate goals.
