The Shaw Trust Ltd's reported carbon emissions

In 2021, The Shaw Trust Ltd reported a carbon intensity of approximately 7.86 kg CO2e per participant, although specific total emissions figures were not disclosed. The emissions data does not specify the scope of emissions (Scope 1, 2, or 3), indicating a lack of detailed reporting on their carbon footprint. Currently, The Shaw Trust has not set any formal reduction targets or commitments under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. This absence of defined targets suggests that while the organisation is aware of its carbon impact, it may not yet have established a comprehensive strategy for emissions reduction. As a UK-based charity, The Shaw Trust is positioned within an industry increasingly focused on sustainability and climate action. However, without specific emissions data or reduction commitments, it remains unclear how they plan to address their carbon footprint moving forward.
