MDPI AG's reported carbon emissions

MDPI AG, headquartered in Switzerland (CH), currently does not report specific carbon emissions data, as indicated by the absence of emissions figures in kg CO2e. The organisation is a current subsidiary of Mdpi Holdings, Inc., which may influence its climate commitments and reporting practices. Despite the lack of direct emissions data, MDPI AG's climate strategy appears to be aligned with broader corporate sustainability initiatives. However, there are no documented reduction targets or commitments to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges at this time. As a subsidiary, MDPI AG may inherit sustainability practices and targets from its parent company, Mdpi Holdings, Inc., but specific details regarding these initiatives are not provided.
