Indian Space Research Organisation's reported carbon emissions

The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) currently does not have publicly available data on its carbon emissions, as there are no specific figures reported for recent years. Consequently, there are no defined reduction targets or climate commitments outlined in their initiatives. In the context of the space industry, ISRO is expected to align with global climate goals and may engage in efforts to reduce its carbon footprint through various sustainability initiatives. However, without specific emissions data or targets, it is challenging to assess their current impact or commitments in relation to climate change. As the organisation continues to advance its space exploration and satellite deployment activities, it is anticipated that ISRO will increasingly focus on integrating sustainable practices to mitigate environmental impacts.
