ESTA
ESTA, or the Electronic System for Travel Authorization, is a vital component of the United States' travel security framework, headquartered in the US. Established to streamline the entry process for travellers from Visa Waiver Program countries, ESTA has significantly enhanced border security since its inception in 2009. Operating primarily across North America and Europe, ESTA facilitates the electronic approval of travel authorisations, ensuring that visitors meet necessary security requirements before their journey. Its unique integration with the Department of Homeland Security allows for real-time data processing, setting it apart from traditional visa systems. Recognised for its efficiency and user-friendly interface, ESTA has become an essential tool for millions of international travellers, reinforcing the US's commitment to safe and secure travel.

ESTA's reported carbon emissions
ESTA currently does not have available carbon emissions data, as no specific figures have been provided for recent years. Consequently, there are no reported emissions in terms of Scope 1, 2, or 3. Additionally, there are no documented reduction targets or climate pledges that outline their commitment to reducing carbon emissions. In the absence of specific data, it is essential to note that many organisations in the industry are increasingly focusing on sustainability and climate action. This includes setting science-based targets and engaging in initiatives aimed at reducing their overall carbon footprint. As such, ESTA may be expected to align with these industry trends in the future, although specific commitments or targets have not been disclosed at this time.
