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 a clear strategy for managing its greenhouse gas emissions. Research Solutions has 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 (Scope 1) and indirect emissions from the generation of purchased electricity, steam, heating, and cooling consumed by the company (Scope 2). 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 the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), ensuring they align with the necessary reductions to limit global warming to 1.5°C. Research Solutions is classified as a small or medium-sized enterprise (SME) and is actively working towards these goals to contribute to a more sustainable future.
