Obagi's reported carbon emissions

Obagi, headquartered in the US, currently does not report specific carbon emissions data, as indicated by the absence of emissions figures in kg CO2e. The company is a merged entity of Obagi Cosmeceuticals LLC and inherits its climate commitments from its parent organisation, Waldencast plc. While there are no documented reduction targets or specific climate pledges available, the cascading of data from Waldencast plc suggests a commitment to sustainability within the corporate family. However, without explicit emissions data or reduction initiatives, it is challenging to assess Obagi's current climate impact or future commitments. As the industry increasingly prioritises climate action, it is essential for Obagi to establish clear emissions reporting and reduction strategies to align with global sustainability goals.
