The Trade Desk, headquartered in the US, currently does not report any specific carbon emissions data, as there are no available figures for kg CO2e emissions. Additionally, there are no documented reduction targets or climate pledges associated with the company. As of now, The Trade Desk has not inherited any emissions data from a parent company, nor does it have any cascading targets from initiatives such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP). This lack of data suggests that the company may still be in the early stages of formalising its climate commitments or reporting practices. In the context of the advertising technology industry, many companies are increasingly focusing on sustainability and carbon reduction strategies. However, without specific emissions data or commitments, it is challenging to assess The Trade Desk's position in this evolving landscape.
Companies disclose and commit to reducing emissions to show they are serious about reducing emissions impact over time. They can also help a company track its progress over time.
The Trade Desk is not participating in any of the initiatives that we track. This may change over time as the company engages with new initiatives or updates its commitments. DitchCarbon will update this information as it becomes available.
