Palantir publishes detailed annual carbon reports with multi-year absolute reduction from 2019 baseline, but relies heavily on offsets to claim neutrality and failed SBTi validation. No third-party verification, no long-term net-zero target, and 2024 saw emissions rise year-on-year despite reduction narrative.
