Despite these figures, Norsk Telegrambyrå AS has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing their carbon footprint. The absence of documented climate pledges or Science-Based Targets Initiative (SBTi) commitments suggests that the company may still be in the early stages of formalising its climate strategy. As the industry increasingly prioritises sustainability, it will be essential for Norsk Telegrambyrå AS to establish clear commitments to reduce emissions and enhance transparency in their climate actions.
