Scottish Funding Council's reported carbon emissions

The Scottish Funding Council currently does not report any carbon emissions data, as there are no available figures for kg CO2e emissions. Additionally, there are no documented reduction targets or climate pledges associated with their operations. This absence of data suggests that the organisation may not have established specific climate commitments or initiatives at this time. As a result, the Scottish Funding Council's approach to carbon emissions and climate action remains unclear within the context of industry standards.
