Defence Research & Development Organisation's reported carbon emissions

The Defence Research & Development Organisation (DRDO), headquartered in India, currently does not have publicly available carbon emissions data for the most recent year, nor does it report specific reduction targets or initiatives. As of now, there are no emissions figures, such as Scope 1, 2, or 3 emissions, nor any commitments to climate pledges or science-based targets (SBTi) that have been disclosed. Given the absence of specific emissions data and reduction initiatives, it is unclear how DRDO is addressing its carbon footprint or contributing to climate action. The organisation may still be developing its strategies and commitments in line with industry standards, but further information would be required to provide a comprehensive overview of its climate commitments and performance.
