IBM Watson Group's reported carbon emissions

Inherited from International Business Machines Corporation

IBM Watson Group, headquartered in the US, currently does not report specific carbon emissions data for the most recent year, as no emissions figures are available. However, the organisation is part of the broader International Business Machines Corporation (IBM), which has established significant climate commitments and reduction initiatives. As a current subsidiary of IBM, IBM Watson Group inherits its climate strategies and targets. IBM has committed to achieving net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2030, with a focus on reducing Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions, which are direct emissions from owned or controlled sources and indirect emissions from the generation of purchased energy, respectively. The company is also actively working on addressing Scope 3 emissions, which encompass all other indirect emissions that occur in a company's value chain. While specific reduction targets for IBM Watson Group are not detailed, the overarching initiatives from IBM include participation in the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and commitments to renewable energy through the RE100 initiative. These efforts reflect a strong commitment to sustainability and climate action within the technology sector. In summary, while IBM Watson Group does not currently report specific emissions data, it aligns with IBM's ambitious climate goals and initiatives aimed at reducing carbon emissions and promoting sustainability across its operations.
