ISDA's reported carbon emissions

ISDA, headquartered in the US, currently does not report any carbon emissions data, with no specific figures available for the most recent year. Consequently, there are no recorded emissions in terms of Scope 1, 2, or 3. Additionally, ISDA has not established any documented reduction targets or commitments under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate initiatives. As a result, ISDA's climate commitments remain unspecified, and there are no significant achievements or initiatives to report in terms of carbon emissions reduction. The absence of emissions data and reduction targets indicates a need for further development in their climate strategy and reporting practices.
