The highest recorded emissions were in 2020, with total emissions reaching about 1,000,000 kg CO2e, driven by Scope 3 emissions of 157,554 kg CO2e. Despite these figures, Sage Publishing Group has not disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing their carbon footprint. The absence of documented reduction strategies suggests a need for enhanced climate commitments within the industry context. As the publishing sector increasingly prioritises sustainability, Sage Publishing Group's future climate actions will be crucial in aligning with global climate goals.
