John Wiley And Son's reported carbon emissions

John Wiley and Son's climate commitments include a long-term goal of achieving net-zero greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions across its value chain by fiscal year 2040, with a base year of FY2020. This ambitious target has been validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). More immediately, Wiley has committed to reducing its absolute Scope 1 and Scope 2 GHG emissions by 50% by FY2030, also from a FY2020 baseline. Furthermore, the company aims to reduce its absolute Scope 3 emissions from purchased goods and services and business travel by 50% within the same timeframe. For the reporting year 2025, John Wiley and Son reported total emissions of approximately 75.5 million kg CO2e. This figure comprises: * **Scope 1 emissions:** Approximately 787,000 kg CO2e. * **Scope 2 emissions:** Approximately 2.13 million kg CO2e (location-based). * **Scope 3 emissions:** Approximately 74.3 million kg CO2e, with purchased goods and services being the largest contributor at about 49.1 million kg CO2e, followed by upstream transportation and distribution at approximately 8.9 million kg CO2e. In the previous reporting year, 2024, total emissions were approximately 85.5 million kg CO2e, with Scope 1 at about 1.03 million kg CO2e, Scope 2 at approximately 3.11 million kg CO2e (location-based), and Scope 3 at roughly 81.5 million kg CO2e. The company's emission intensity is also tracked, with reported figures such as approximately 0.00213 kg CO2e per GBP revenue for Scope 2 (location-based) and approximately 25,600 kg CO2e per full-time equivalent employee for the 2025 reporting year. Wiley's targets are considered to be on track for the near-term reduction goals.
