The company's emissions data from 2022 showed a total of about 7,087,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 477,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 at 6,610,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 at 1,138,000 kg CO2e. Over the years, Emedia Holdings has experienced fluctuations in its emissions, with the highest recorded in 2023. Despite these figures, Emedia Holdings has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives, as indicated by the absence of documented reduction targets or climate pledges. The company operates within a challenging industry context, where media and broadcasting sectors are increasingly scrutinised for their environmental impact. Overall, while Emedia Holdings has made strides in reporting its emissions, the lack of defined reduction strategies highlights an area for potential improvement in its climate commitments.
