IFRS Foundation's reported carbon emissions

The IFRS Foundation, headquartered in Great Britain, currently does not have publicly available carbon emissions data or specific reduction targets. Without emissions data, it is challenging to assess their carbon footprint or the scope of their emissions (Scope 1, 2, or 3). However, the Foundation is committed to addressing climate change and enhancing sustainability within the financial reporting framework. Their initiatives may align with global efforts to improve transparency and accountability in climate-related disclosures, reflecting a growing industry trend towards responsible environmental stewardship. Further details on specific commitments or targets may be forthcoming as the Foundation continues to develop its climate strategy.
