Wall Street Journal's reported carbon emissions

Inherited from News Corporation

The Wall Street Journal, headquartered in the US, currently does not report specific carbon emissions data, as indicated by the absence of emissions figures. However, the organisation is part of a corporate family that includes News Corporation, from which it inherits emissions data and climate commitments. As a current subsidiary of News Corporation, The Wall Street Journal aligns with the climate initiatives and targets set by its parent company. These initiatives include participation in the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP), both of which are aimed at reducing greenhouse gas emissions in line with global climate goals. While specific reduction targets for The Wall Street Journal are not detailed, the overarching commitments from News Corporation suggest a focus on sustainability and emissions reduction across its subsidiaries. The Wall Street Journal's climate strategy is informed by these industry-standard frameworks, although no specific metrics or targets have been disclosed at this time. In summary, while The Wall Street Journal does not provide its own emissions data or reduction targets, it is integrated into the broader climate commitments of News Corporation, reflecting a commitment to addressing climate change within its operational framework.
