In 2021, Zipp reported no specific carbon emissions data, indicating a lack of disclosed Scope 1, 2, or 3 emissions. The most recent available data from previous years shows that in 2018, the company emitted approximately 22,100 kg CO2e from VOC emissions, while in 2017, emissions were about 29,400 kg CO2e, and in 2016, around 37,800 kg CO2e, all from unspecified sources. Zipp has not set any documented reduction targets or commitments to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and does not appear to have any climate pledges in place. The absence of specific emissions data and reduction initiatives suggests that Zipp may be in the early stages of developing a comprehensive climate strategy. As of now, Zipp's emissions data is not cascaded from any parent organization, and all performance data is sourced directly from Zippy Shell Incorporated. The company may need to enhance its transparency and commitment to climate action to align with industry standards.
Climate goals typically focus on 2030 interim targets and 2050 net-zero commitments, aligned with global frameworks like the Paris Agreement and Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) to ensure alignment with global climate goals.
Zipp has not publicly committed to specific 2030 or 2050 climate goals through the major frameworks we track. Companies often set interim 2030 targets and long-term 2050 net-zero goals to demonstrate measurable progress toward decarbonization.
