Bild GmbH's reported carbon emissions

Inherited from Axel Springer SE

Bild GmbH, headquartered in Germany, currently does not report specific carbon emissions data for the most recent year. However, the company is part of a corporate family that includes Axel Springer SE, from which it inherits emissions data and climate commitments. As a current subsidiary of Axel Springer SE, Bild GmbH aligns with the climate initiatives and targets set by its parent company. These initiatives include commitments to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and participation in the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP), both of which aim to enhance transparency and accountability in carbon emissions management. While Bild GmbH has not specified its own reduction targets or achievements, it is expected to follow the sustainability strategies and performance metrics established by Axel Springer SE. This includes a commitment to reducing emissions across various scopes, although specific figures and targets have not been disclosed for Bild GmbH itself. In summary, while Bild GmbH lacks direct emissions data and specific reduction targets, it is integrated into the broader climate strategy of Axel Springer SE, which is focused on responsible environmental stewardship and carbon reduction.
