Twitter's reported carbon emissions
As of the latest available data, Twitter has not disclosed specific carbon emissions figures or detailed climate commitments. Without emissions data, it is challenging to assess their carbon footprint or the scope of their emissions (Scope 1, 2, or 3). Additionally, there are no documented reduction targets or initiatives outlined in their climate strategy. This lack of transparency may reflect broader industry trends where companies are increasingly expected to report on their environmental impact and set ambitious sustainability goals. As the conversation around corporate climate responsibility continues to evolve, it remains crucial for Twitter to establish and communicate clear commitments to reduce their carbon emissions in the future.
