EY's reported carbon emissions

EY, headquartered in the US, currently does not have publicly available carbon emissions data or specific reduction targets outlined in their climate commitments. Without concrete figures or defined initiatives, it is challenging to assess their current carbon footprint or the effectiveness of their sustainability strategies. However, as a leading global professional services firm, EY is expected to engage in various climate initiatives and commitments aligned with industry standards. The absence of detailed emissions data suggests a potential area for improvement in transparency and accountability regarding their environmental impact.
