Summary

In this module, we collect the reported emission data from sustainability reports from the five biggest publishers in a machine-readable format. Data includes tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent from as early as 2001 and across all emission scopes (1, 2, 3). These are the basis for further analysis of climate impact to be published in future modules.
