In 2020, WATCHA, Inc. reported total carbon emissions of approximately 77,130,000 kg CO2e, encompassing all scopes of emissions. This figure reflects a significant increase from 2019, when emissions were about 64,949,000 kg CO2e, and from 2018, which recorded approximately 55,774,000 kg CO2e. The data indicates a trend of rising emissions over these years, with no specific breakdown provided for Scope 1, 2, or 3 emissions. Despite the lack of specific reduction targets or initiatives disclosed, WATCHA, Inc. has not reported any climate pledges or commitments to reduce emissions. The absence of SBTi (Science Based Targets initiative) reduction targets suggests that the company has yet to formalise its climate commitments within industry-standard frameworks. Overall, while WATCHA, Inc. has demonstrated transparency in reporting its emissions data, the company currently lacks defined strategies for emissions reduction or climate action commitments.
