TENNESSEE's reported carbon emissions

As of the latest available data, Tennessee has not disclosed specific carbon emissions figures for recent years, with the most recent emissions data available dating back to 2021. In that year, the organisation reported emissions of approximately 10,503,000,000 kg CO2e. However, there are no specific details regarding the scope of these emissions (Scope 1, 2, or 3) or any significant reduction targets or achievements. Tennessee has not established documented reduction targets or commitments to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), nor have they made any notable climate pledges. This lack of specific commitments may indicate a need for further development in their climate strategy and emissions reporting. Overall, while Tennessee's emissions data reflects a substantial output, the absence of clear reduction initiatives or targets suggests an opportunity for improvement in their climate commitments and sustainability practices.
