As of the latest available data, GS has not reported any specific carbon emissions figures, indicating a lack of publicly disclosed emissions data. Consequently, there are no absolute emissions numbers to analyse, including Scope 1, 2, or 3 emissions. In terms of climate commitments, GS has not outlined any specific reduction targets or initiatives. The absence of documented reduction targets suggests that the company may not currently be engaged in formal climate pledges or initiatives such as those outlined by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other industry standards. It is important to note that GS does not inherit emissions data from any parent or related organization, as indicated by the absence of cascaded data. This means that the company operates independently regarding its climate reporting and commitments. Overall, without specific emissions data or reduction initiatives, GS's current climate strategy remains unclear, highlighting an opportunity for the company to enhance its transparency and commitment to addressing climate change.
Companies disclose and commit to reducing emissions to show they are serious about reducing emissions impact over time. They can also help a company track its progress over time.
