Indian Institute of Technology, Bombay's reported carbon emissions

Inherited from IIT Council

The Indian Institute of Technology, Bombay (IIT Bombay) currently does not have specific carbon emissions data available, as indicated by the absence of reported figures. As a current subsidiary of the IIT Council, any emissions data or climate commitments may be inherited from this parent organisation. IIT Bombay has not outlined any specific reduction targets or initiatives in its climate strategy, nor does it appear to have committed to any industry-standard frameworks such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP). In the context of climate commitments, IIT Bombay's lack of publicly available emissions data and reduction initiatives suggests a need for further development in its sustainability practices. The institution's future climate strategy may benefit from aligning with established frameworks and setting measurable targets to enhance its environmental impact.
