Springer Nature Limited's reported carbon emissions

Springer Nature Limited, headquartered in Great Britain, currently does not have specific carbon emissions data available for recent years, as indicated by the absence of reported figures. The company is a current subsidiary and may inherit emissions data from its parent organization, but no specific details have been provided regarding this cascade. In terms of climate commitments, Springer Nature Limited has not outlined any specific reduction targets or initiatives, such as those from the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other industry-standard frameworks. The lack of documented climate pledges or reduction strategies suggests that the company may still be in the early stages of formalising its climate action plans. As the publishing industry increasingly prioritises sustainability, it is essential for Springer Nature Limited to establish clear emissions reduction targets and initiatives to align with global climate goals.
