News Limited today congratulated its major newsprint supplier Norske Skog on its announcement to reduce its carbon emissions by one million tonnes a year.

News Limited is Norkse Skog’s largest single customer anywhere in the world. The company has supplied newsprint to News Limited for over 50 years and currently supplies more than 90% of News Limited’s total newsprint.

News Limited chairman and chief executive, John Hartigan, said the decision by Norkse Skog is a stunning example of what can be achieved by businesses committed to reducing greenhouse gas.
