Cision's reported carbon emissions

Cision, headquartered in the US, currently does not report specific carbon emissions data, as indicated by the absence of emissions figures in kg CO2e. The company is a current subsidiary of Cision Ltd., which may influence its climate commitments and reporting practices. Despite the lack of detailed emissions data, Cision has not outlined any specific reduction targets or initiatives related to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. This suggests that while Cision may be aware of the importance of climate action, it has yet to establish measurable goals or publicly commit to specific reduction strategies. As a part of the broader industry context, many organisations are increasingly focusing on transparency and accountability regarding their carbon footprints. Cision's current lack of emissions reporting and reduction initiatives may reflect a need for further development in its sustainability strategy.
