Zipline's reported carbon emissions

As of the latest available data, Zipline has not reported any specific carbon emissions figures, indicating a lack of publicly disclosed emissions data. Consequently, there are no details regarding their Scope 1, 2, or 3 emissions. Additionally, there are no documented reduction targets or climate pledges from the company, which suggests that they may not have formalised commitments to reduce their carbon footprint at this time. In the context of the industry, many companies are increasingly adopting science-based targets and sustainability initiatives to mitigate climate change impacts. However, without specific data or commitments from Zipline, it is challenging to assess their position relative to these industry standards.
