Investopedia, LLC's reported carbon emissions

Inherited from IAC Inc.

Investopedia, LLC, headquartered in the US, currently does not report specific carbon emissions data, as indicated by the absence of emissions figures.

While there are no documented reduction targets or specific climate pledges from Investopedia, it is important to note that emissions data and performance metrics may be inherited from its parent company, IAC Inc.

The lack of detailed emissions data highlights a potential area for improvement in transparency and accountability regarding environmental performance.
