Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Company's reported carbon emissions

Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Company, headquartered in the US, currently does not report any specific carbon emissions data, as there are no available figures for kg CO2e emissions. Additionally, the company has not established any documented reduction targets or climate pledges. In the absence of specific emissions data or commitments, it is important to note that many organisations in the publishing industry are increasingly focusing on sustainability and reducing their carbon footprints. However, without concrete data or initiatives from Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, it is unclear how they are addressing climate change or contributing to industry-wide efforts.
