Postmates, headquartered in the US, currently does not have specific carbon emissions data available for recent years, as indicated by the absence of reported figures. The company is a current subsidiary of Uber Technologies, Inc., which may influence its climate commitments and emissions data. Postmates inherits its climate initiatives and targets from Uber Technologies, Inc. This includes participation in various sustainability frameworks such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP), both of which are cascaded from Uber. However, specific reduction targets or achievements for Postmates have not been disclosed. While no absolute emissions numbers are provided, Postmates is aligned with Uber's broader climate commitments, which aim to address carbon emissions across all scopes. The lack of specific data highlights the need for transparency in reporting and a clear outline of future climate strategies.
