Universal Music Publishing Group, Inc.'s reported carbon emissions

Inherited from Universal Music Group N.V.

Universal Music Publishing Group, Inc., headquartered in the US, currently does not have specific carbon emissions data available for the most recent year. The company is a current subsidiary of Universal Music Group N.V., which may influence its climate commitments and emissions reporting. As of now, there are no documented reduction targets or significant climate initiatives directly attributed to Universal Music Publishing Group, Inc. However, it is important to note that any climate commitments or targets may be inherited from its parent company, Universal Music Group N.V., which operates under various industry-standard frameworks such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP). Given the absence of specific emissions data and reduction targets, Universal Music Publishing Group, Inc. appears to be in the early stages of formalising its climate strategy. The company may benefit from aligning with the broader sustainability goals set by its parent organisation, which could include future commitments to reduce carbon emissions across its operations.
