DoorDash has not disclosed any Scope 3 emissions data, which typically includes indirect emissions from the supply chain and product use. Furthermore, the company has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges, indicating a potential area for future commitment. As a US-based organisation, DoorDash's emissions data is not cascaded from any parent company, and all reported figures are directly sourced from DoorDash, Inc. The company continues to operate within the food delivery industry, which faces increasing scrutiny regarding its environmental impact and sustainability practices.
