Kaplan, Inc.'s reported carbon emissions

Inherited from Graham Holdings Company

Kaplan, Inc., headquartered in the US, currently does not have specific carbon emissions data available for recent years, as indicated by the absence of reported figures. The company is a current subsidiary of Graham Holdings Company, which may influence its climate commitments and reporting practices. While Kaplan, Inc. has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives, it is important to note that emissions data and climate strategies may be inherited from its parent company.

As of now, Kaplan, Inc. has not publicly committed to any specific climate pledges or reduction targets, nor does it report under frameworks such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The lack of detailed emissions data and reduction initiatives suggests that Kaplan, Inc. may still be in the early stages of developing a comprehensive climate strategy.
