Instructure's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, Instructure reported total carbon emissions of approximately 524,000 kg CO2e. The emissions breakdown reveals that Scope 2 emissions, primarily from purchased electricity, accounted for about 417,000 kg CO2e, while Scope 3 emissions from purchased goods and services contributed approximately 5,000 kg CO2e. Notably, there is no available data on Scope 1 emissions. Despite the emissions figures, Instructure has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing their carbon footprint. The absence of documented climate pledges or science-based targets suggests that the company may still be in the early stages of formalising its climate commitments. As the industry increasingly prioritises sustainability, Instructure's future actions will be crucial in aligning with global climate goals.
