Hotels.com's reported carbon emissions

Hotels.com, headquartered in the US, currently does not report specific carbon emissions data, as indicated by the absence of emissions figures. The company is a current subsidiary of Expedia Group, Inc., which may influence its climate commitments and reporting practices. While there are no documented reduction targets or specific climate pledges from Hotels.com, it is important to note that any climate initiatives or targets would likely be aligned with those of its parent company, Expedia Group, Inc. This includes potential commitments to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and participation in the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP), both of which are cascaded from Expedia Group, Inc. As the travel and hospitality industry increasingly focuses on sustainability, Hotels.com may adopt similar strategies to reduce its carbon footprint in the future. However, without specific data or commitments available, the current status of its climate initiatives remains unclear.
