New York Times's reported carbon emissions
The New York Times has not publicly disclosed specific carbon emissions data for the most recent year, nor does it appear to have established formal reduction targets or commitments under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). As such, there are no available figures regarding their Scope 1, 2, or 3 emissions, which encompass direct and indirect emissions associated with their operations. While the absence of specific emissions data limits the ability to assess their current carbon footprint, it is important to note that the organisation is actively engaged in climate-related initiatives, as indicated by their participation in the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP). However, details regarding specific reduction initiatives or climate pledges remain unspecified. In summary, without concrete emissions data or defined reduction targets, the New York Times's climate commitments and performance in terms of carbon emissions remain unclear.
