SmileDirectClub, Inc.'s reported carbon emissions
SmileDirectClub, Inc., headquartered in the US, currently does not have any publicly available carbon emissions data, as indicated by the absence of specific figures in kg CO2e. Additionally, there are no documented reduction targets or climate pledges from the company. This lack of data suggests that SmileDirectClub may not have established formal commitments to reduce its carbon footprint or engage in climate initiatives at this time. As the company operates within the dental and orthodontic industry, it is essential for them to consider the growing emphasis on sustainability and climate action. Many organisations in similar sectors are increasingly adopting science-based targets and participating in initiatives such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) to align their operations with global climate goals. However, without specific commitments or data, it remains unclear how SmileDirectClub plans to address its environmental impact.
