ed2go publishes no sustainability information of its own. No emissions data, energy sourcing, water use or reduction targets were found for ed2go or its parent, Cengage Group. The only environmental statements found are general commitments on Cengage's Australia and New Zealand sites (certified paper, office recycling, energy-efficient equipment), which cover sister businesses rather than ed2go.
