The Eastern Company's reported carbon emissions

The Eastern Company, headquartered in the US, currently does not report any specific carbon emissions data, as there are no available figures for kg CO2e emissions. Additionally, the company has not established any documented reduction targets or commitments to climate initiatives, such as those outlined by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). As a result, there is no information on their scope of emissions (Scope 1, 2, or 3) or any significant achievements in reducing carbon footprints. The absence of data suggests that The Eastern Company may still be in the early stages of developing a comprehensive climate strategy or reporting framework. In the context of the industry, many companies are increasingly focusing on sustainability and setting ambitious targets to reduce their carbon emissions. However, without specific commitments or data, it is challenging to assess The Eastern Company's position in this evolving landscape.
