Unity relies on a 2020 emissions baseline now four years outdated with no verified recent data. The company commits to net-zero and SBTi targets but leaves validation pending into 2026. Renewable energy procurement via unbundled certificates and a new VPPA represent incremental progress, yet operational transparency and supply-chain accountability remain weak.
Unity Technologies scores 53/100 (Making progress) on SINK's independent climate assessment, scored from public data only. Scores are free. Companies can never pay for anything about their own score. Last verified May 2026.
