Macmillan Learning's reported carbon emissions

Macmillan Learning, headquartered in the US, currently does not have specific carbon emissions data available for the most recent year. As a current subsidiary, it inherits its climate commitments and emissions data from its parent organisation, which is not specified in the provided information. Despite the absence of concrete emissions figures, Macmillan Learning is committed to addressing climate change through various initiatives. However, there are no documented reduction targets or specific climate pledges outlined in the available data. As part of the broader industry context, many organisations are increasingly adopting Science-Based Targets Initiative (SBTi) standards and committing to significant reductions in greenhouse gas emissions across all scopes. Macmillan Learning's climate strategy may align with these industry trends, but specific details on their initiatives or targets are not provided. In summary, while Macmillan Learning is positioned within a corporate family that may have climate commitments, the lack of specific emissions data and reduction targets limits the ability to detail their current climate impact and commitments.
