Rics's reported carbon emissions

In 2008, RICS reported total embodied carbon emissions of approximately 9,000,000 kg CO2e. This figure falls under a category not specifically defined by scope, indicating that detailed breakdowns into Scope 1, 2, or 3 emissions are not available. Currently, RICS has not established any specific reduction targets or climate pledges, nor do they have any emissions data cascaded from a parent or related organization. As such, their climate commitments remain unspecified, and there are no documented initiatives aimed at reducing their carbon footprint. Overall, RICS's approach to carbon emissions and climate commitments appears to be in the early stages, with a need for clearer targets and strategies to address their environmental impact.
