PR Newswire's reported carbon emissions

Inherited from Castle Intermediate Holding V Limited

PR Newswire, headquartered in the US, currently does not report specific carbon emissions data, as indicated by the absence of figures in the latest emissions data. The organisation is a current subsidiary of PR Newswire, Inc., and as such, it does not inherit emissions data from its parent company or any other related entities. In terms of climate commitments, PR Newswire has not established any documented reduction targets or initiatives, including those aligned with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The lack of specific climate pledges or reduction strategies suggests that the company may still be in the early stages of developing a comprehensive sustainability framework. As the industry increasingly prioritises carbon neutrality and climate action, PR Newswire's future commitments and strategies will be crucial in aligning with broader environmental goals.
