In 2015, total emissions were about 160,604,000 kg CO2e, while in 2014, they peaked at approximately 166,740,000 kg CO2e. The data indicates a slight reduction in emissions from 2014 to 2016, reflecting STM's ongoing efforts to manage its carbon footprint. Despite these figures, STM has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. The absence of formal commitments suggests that while STM is actively monitoring its emissions, it may not yet have established a comprehensive framework for significant future reductions. Overall, STM's emissions data highlights the importance of continued efforts in reducing carbon emissions within the public transport sector, particularly as urban areas seek to enhance sustainability and combat climate change.
