Qiagen Corporation, headquartered in the US, currently does not have specific carbon emissions data available for the most recent year. The company is a current subsidiary of Qiagen N.V., and any emissions data or climate commitments would be inherited from this parent organisation. As of now, Qiagen Corporation has not publicly disclosed any specific reduction targets or initiatives related to carbon emissions. The absence of documented reduction targets suggests that the company may still be in the process of developing its climate strategy or aligning with broader corporate sustainability goals set by Qiagen N.V. In the context of climate commitments, Qiagen N.V. has engaged with various initiatives, including the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP), which may influence Qiagen Corporation's future climate actions. However, specific details regarding these initiatives or any measurable targets have not been provided. Overall, while Qiagen Corporation is part of a larger corporate family that is likely to have climate commitments, the lack of specific emissions data and reduction targets at this level indicates a need for further transparency and action in addressing climate change.
