Seattle Children's's reported carbon emissions

Seattle Children's, headquartered in the US, currently does not have specific carbon emissions data available for recent years, as indicated by the absence of emissions figures in kg CO2e. The organisation is a current subsidiary of Seattle Children's Hospital, which may influence its climate commitments and initiatives. Despite the lack of detailed emissions data, Seattle Children's is committed to addressing climate change through various initiatives. However, no specific reduction targets or commitments, such as those from the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), have been documented. This suggests that while the organisation acknowledges the importance of sustainability, concrete goals and measurable achievements in emissions reduction are not yet established. As a part of the healthcare sector, Seattle Children's is likely aware of the growing emphasis on sustainability and carbon neutrality within the industry, which may inform future commitments and strategies.
