Twitter's reported carbon emissions
As of the latest available data, Twitter has not disclosed any specific carbon emissions figures, including Scope 1, 2, or 3 emissions. Consequently, there are no reported reduction targets or achievements related to carbon emissions. The absence of emissions data and climate commitments suggests that Twitter may not have established formal initiatives or targets in line with industry standards. In the context of corporate climate action, it is essential for companies to set measurable targets and report emissions transparently. Without such commitments, Twitter's position in the climate accountability landscape remains unclear.
