U.S. Small Business Administration's reported carbon emissions

The U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) currently does not report any carbon emissions data, as indicated by the absence of specific figures in kg CO2e. Consequently, there are no documented reduction targets or climate commitments available at this time. The SBA has not inherited emissions data from any parent organisation, nor does it have any cascading climate initiatives from related entities. As such, the SBA's climate strategy and commitments remain unspecified, leaving a gap in their environmental performance metrics.
