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 their reporting. Consequently, there are no recorded emissions in kg CO2e for the most recent year or any previous years. Additionally, the company has not established any documented reduction targets or commitments to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges.
