As of the latest available data, Zoom has not publicly disclosed specific carbon emissions figures or detailed climate commitments. Without concrete emissions data, it is challenging to assess their carbon footprint or the scope of their emissions (Scope 1, 2, or 3). However, it is important to note that many companies in the tech industry are increasingly focusing on sustainability and setting ambitious climate targets. While Zoom has not outlined specific reduction targets or initiatives, the industry trend leans towards adopting science-based targets and committing to net-zero emissions in the coming decades. Zoom's commitment to sustainability may align with broader industry efforts to reduce carbon emissions and enhance environmental responsibility, but specific details regarding their initiatives or targets remain unspecified.
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.
Zoom is not committed to any reduction initiatives 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.
