Tala's reported carbon emissions

Tala, headquartered in the US, currently does not have publicly available carbon emissions data for the most recent year, nor does it specify any reduction targets or initiatives. Without specific emissions figures or commitments, it is unclear how Tala is addressing its carbon footprint or contributing to climate action. The absence of data suggests a need for greater transparency regarding their environmental impact and climate commitments.
