Homeboy Cafe currently does not have available carbon emissions data for the most recent year, nor are there specific reduction targets or initiatives outlined in their climate commitments. Without concrete figures or defined goals, it is challenging to assess their carbon footprint or climate strategy. However, the absence of data does not diminish the importance of climate action within the food service industry, where many organisations are increasingly focusing on sustainability and reducing their environmental impact. Homeboy Cafe may still be engaging in efforts to address climate change, but specific details on their commitments or achievements are not provided.
