Saia's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, Saia, headquartered in the US, reported carbon emissions of approximately 595,029,000 kg CO2e, all of which fall under Scope 1 emissions, specifically from mobile combustion. The company has not disclosed any Scope 2 or Scope 3 emissions data. Currently, Saia does not have any publicly stated reduction targets or commitments under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. This lack of formal reduction initiatives suggests that while the company is aware of its emissions, it has yet to establish specific goals for reducing its carbon footprint. As part of its corporate responsibility, Saia is expected to continue monitoring its emissions and may consider future commitments to align with industry standards for climate action.
