Shaw Communications Inc., headquartered in Canada, reported its greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions data for the years 2019 and 2020. In 2020, the company achieved a GHG emissions intensity of approximately 1.82e-05 kg CO2e per unit of revenue, a slight improvement from 2019, which had an intensity of about 1.95e-05 kg CO2e per unit of revenue. However, specific total emissions figures for these years were not disclosed. Currently, Shaw Communications has not established any formal reduction targets or commitments under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. This lack of specified reduction initiatives indicates that while the company is monitoring its emissions intensity, it has yet to set concrete goals for overall emissions reduction. As the telecommunications industry increasingly focuses on sustainability, Shaw's ongoing efforts to track and report emissions will be crucial in aligning with broader climate commitments and enhancing its environmental performance.
