BMG Rights Management GmbH's reported carbon emissions

Inherited from Bertelsmann SE & Co. KGaA

BMG Rights Management GmbH, headquartered in Germany (DE), currently does not have specific carbon emissions data available for recent years. The company is a current subsidiary of Bertelsmann SE & Co. KGaA, which may influence its climate commitments and initiatives. As part of its corporate family, BMG Rights Management GmbH inherits climate commitments and reduction targets from Bertelsmann SE & Co. KGaA. However, there are no documented reduction targets or specific climate pledges listed for BMG Rights Management GmbH itself. The absence of direct emissions data and reduction initiatives suggests that BMG Rights Management GmbH is still in the process of establishing its own climate strategy, potentially aligning with the broader goals set by its parent company.
