iStar Inc.'s reported carbon emissions

Inherited from Safehold Inc.

iStar Inc., headquartered in the US, currently does not have specific carbon emissions data available for the most recent year, as indicated by the absence of reported figures. The company is identified as a merged entity, inheriting emissions data from its corporate family, specifically from Safehold Inc. at a cascade level of 1. However, no specific emissions figures or reduction targets have been disclosed. In terms of climate commitments, iStar Inc. has not outlined any specific reduction initiatives or targets, including those aligned with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The lack of detailed emissions data and defined climate pledges suggests that iStar Inc. may still be in the early stages of formalising its climate strategy. As the company continues to develop its approach to carbon emissions and sustainability, it is essential for stakeholders to monitor future disclosures for any commitments or performance metrics that may emerge.
