R Foundation's reported carbon emissions

The R Foundation, headquartered in Great Britain, currently does not report any carbon emissions data, as indicated by the absence of specific figures in kg CO2e. Additionally, there are no documented reduction targets or climate pledges associated with the organisation. This lack of data suggests that the R Foundation may not have established formal commitments to reduce its carbon footprint or engage in climate initiatives at this time. As such, the organisation's climate strategy remains unclear within the context of industry standards for emissions reporting and reduction commitments.
