Khan Academy's reported carbon emissions

Khan Academy, headquartered in the US, currently does not report any specific carbon emissions data, as indicated by the absence of figures in the latest emissions data. Furthermore, there are no documented reduction targets or climate pledges associated with the organisation. This lack of data suggests that Khan Academy may not have established formal commitments to reduce carbon emissions or may not publicly disclose such information. In the context of climate action, it is essential for educational organisations like Khan Academy to consider implementing sustainability initiatives and setting measurable targets to contribute positively to global climate efforts. Without specific emissions data or reduction commitments, it is challenging to assess their impact on climate change or their alignment with industry standards.

Khan Academy is not participating in any of the initiatives that we track. This may change over time as the company engages with new initiatives or updates its commitments. DitchCarbon will update this information as it becomes available.
