Research Solutions's reported carbon emissions

Research Solutions, headquartered in the United States, has set ambitious climate commitments aimed at achieving significant reductions in carbon emissions. Although specific emissions data for the most recent year is not available, the company has established clear targets for its greenhouse gas emissions. Research Solutions is committed to maintaining zero emissions for both Scope 1 and Scope 2 by 2030, using 2022 as the base year. This commitment reflects an overall reduction target of 100% for these scopes, which encompass direct emissions from owned or controlled sources and indirect emissions from the generation of purchased electricity, respectively. Additionally, the company aims to measure and reduce its Scope 3 emissions, which include all other indirect emissions that occur in the value chain. These targets have been validated through a streamlined process designed for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and align with the necessary reductions to limit global warming to 1.5°C. Research Solutions has not yet committed to a net-zero target but is actively working towards substantial emissions reductions in the near term. In summary, while specific emissions figures are not provided, Research Solutions demonstrates a strong commitment to sustainability through its rigorous emissions reduction targets, focusing on achieving zero Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions by 2030.
