Verisign, headquartered in the US, currently does not report any specific carbon emissions data, as indicated by the absence of figures in the latest emissions report. Consequently, there are no recorded emissions in terms of Scope 1, 2, or 3. Additionally, the company has not established any documented reduction targets or commitments to climate initiatives, such as those outlined by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). As of now, Verisign's climate commitments and reduction initiatives remain unspecified, indicating a potential area for development in their sustainability strategy. Without concrete data or targets, it is challenging to assess their impact on climate change or their alignment with industry standards for emissions reduction.
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.
Verisign 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.
