Saia's reported carbon emissions
In 2024, Saia reported carbon emissions of approximately 665,331,000 kg CO2e, all of which fall under Scope 1 emissions. This represents an increase from the previous year's emissions of about 606,424,000 kg CO2e in 2023. The company has not disclosed any Scope 2 or Scope 3 emissions data. Saia has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of its climate commitments, nor does it participate in initiatives such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The absence of documented reduction targets suggests a need for further development in their climate strategy. As a US-based organisation, Saia's emissions data is independently reported and not cascaded from any parent company. The company continues to operate within the logistics sector, which is under increasing scrutiny for its environmental impact, highlighting the importance of establishing clear climate commitments and reduction strategies in the future.
