CARFAX, Inc.'s reported carbon emissions

Inherited from S&P Global Inc.

CARFAX, Inc., headquartered in the US, currently does not have specific carbon emissions data available for the most recent year, as indicated by the absence of reported emissions figures. The company is a current subsidiary of S&P Global Inc., and any potential emissions data or climate commitments may be inherited from this parent organisation. Despite the lack of specific emissions data, CARFAX, Inc. is part of a corporate family that engages in various climate initiatives. The company is aligned with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and participates in the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP), both of which are managed by S&P Global Inc. at the sixth cascade level. However, no specific reduction targets or climate pledges have been documented for CARFAX, Inc. at this time. As a subsidiary, CARFAX, Inc. may benefit from the broader sustainability strategies and commitments of S&P Global Inc., which could influence its future climate actions. The absence of detailed emissions data and reduction targets highlights the need for further transparency and commitment to climate action within the organisation.
