This indicates a trend of increasing emissions over the years, with total emissions in 2021 reaching approximately 100,978,000 kg CO2e. Silicon Labs has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing their carbon footprint. The absence of documented reduction commitments suggests a need for further transparency regarding their climate strategies and goals. As the company continues to navigate its environmental impact, it remains crucial for them to establish clear and measurable climate commitments to align with industry standards and expectations.
