The Royal Institute of British Architects's reported carbon emissions

The Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA), headquartered in Great Britain, currently does not have available carbon emissions data, as indicated by the absence of specific figures in kg CO2e. Additionally, there are no documented reduction targets or climate pledges outlined in their initiatives. As of now, RIBA has not inherited any emissions data from a parent organization, nor are there any cascading targets from related entities. This lack of data suggests that RIBA may still be in the early stages of formalising its carbon emissions reporting and climate commitments. In the context of the architecture and built environment sector, RIBA's future climate initiatives will be crucial in addressing the industry's overall impact on climate change.
