LSTA's reported carbon emissions
LSTA currently does not have available carbon emissions data or specific reduction targets outlined in their climate commitments. Without concrete figures or defined initiatives, it is challenging to assess their current impact on climate change or their strategic approach to reducing carbon emissions. However, as part of the broader industry context, LSTA may be expected to align with emerging climate standards and practices aimed at reducing greenhouse gas emissions across various scopes. The commitment to sustainability and climate action is increasingly vital for organisations, and LSTA's future initiatives may reflect this trend.

Reduction initiatives & disclosure networks
Companies disclose and commit to reducing emissions to show they are serious about reducing emissions impact over time. They can also help a company track its progress over time.
LSTA is not committed to any reduction initiatives 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.
