H&R Block's emissions data indicates a commitment to transparency, as they disclose emissions across all three scopes. However, there are currently no specific reduction targets or initiatives outlined in their reports, such as Science-Based Targets Initiative (SBTi) commitments or document reduction targets. This suggests that while the company is monitoring its emissions, it may not have formalised strategies for significant reductions at this time. As a leading tax preparation service headquartered in the US, H&R Block's climate commitments are crucial in the context of increasing industry focus on sustainability and carbon neutrality. The company’s ongoing efforts to track and report emissions reflect a growing awareness of corporate responsibility towards climate change.
