This reduction reflects a commitment to improving operational efficiency and reducing carbon footprints. Intershop Communications has not disclosed any Scope 3 emissions data, nor have they set specific reduction targets through initiatives such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The absence of formal climate pledges or documented reduction targets suggests that while the company is making strides in emissions reduction, there is potential for further commitment to structured climate action. Overall, Intershop Communications demonstrates a proactive approach to managing its carbon emissions, with a clear downward trend in total emissions over the past year.
