Outerknown, headquartered in the US, currently does not have any publicly available carbon emissions data for the most recent year, nor does it report specific reduction targets or initiatives. The company has not disclosed any commitments to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. As such, there are no specific figures or scopes of emissions (Scope 1, 2, or 3) to report. In the absence of concrete emissions data or reduction commitments, it is unclear how Outerknown is addressing its carbon footprint or contributing to climate action within the fashion industry. The lack of transparency in emissions reporting highlights a broader context where many companies are increasingly expected to disclose their environmental impact and set measurable targets for reduction.
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.
Outerknown 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.
