IAB's reported carbon emissions
As of the latest available data, IAB has not reported any specific carbon emissions figures, indicating a lack of disclosed emissions data. Consequently, there are no recorded Scope 1, 2, or 3 emissions figures to analyse. Furthermore, IAB has not established any documented reduction targets or climate pledges, which suggests that their climate commitments remain undefined at this time. In the context of industry standards, it is essential for organisations to set measurable climate goals and report emissions transparently to contribute effectively to global climate initiatives. Without specific data or commitments, IAB's position on carbon emissions and climate action remains unclear.
