Epic Games's reported carbon emissions
As of the latest available data, Epic Games has not disclosed any specific carbon emissions figures, including Scope 1, 2, or 3 emissions, nor have they set any formal reduction targets. The absence of emissions data suggests that the company may still be in the early stages of quantifying its carbon footprint or developing a comprehensive climate strategy. Epic Games has not reported any commitments to initiatives such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges, indicating a potential gap in their climate action framework. Without specific targets or achievements, it is unclear how the company plans to address its environmental impact. In the context of the gaming industry, many companies are increasingly focusing on sustainability and carbon reduction. However, without concrete data or commitments from Epic Games, it remains challenging to assess their position relative to industry standards.
