Groupe Les Echos SA's reported carbon emissions

Inherited from LVMH Moët Hennessy - Louis Vuitton, Société Européenne

Groupe Les Echos SA, headquartered in France, currently does not have specific carbon emissions data available for recent years. The organisation is a current subsidiary of LVMH Moët Hennessy - Louis Vuitton, Société Européenne, and thus may inherit emissions data and climate commitments from its parent company. As part of its corporate family relationship with LVMH, Groupe Les Echos SA aligns with the sustainability initiatives and targets set by LVMH. This includes participation in various climate initiatives such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP), both of which are cascaded from LVMH. However, specific reduction targets or achievements for Groupe Les Echos SA have not been disclosed. The absence of direct emissions data suggests that the company is still in the process of establishing its own climate commitments or may rely on the broader sustainability framework provided by LVMH. As the industry increasingly prioritises climate action, Groupe Les Echos SA's alignment with LVMH's initiatives positions it within a context of growing environmental responsibility.
