The impact of carbon news coverage on corporate green transformation.
Article in Scientific reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
As an important component of informal environmental regulation, the media wields pivotal discourse power and can guide public opinion. Can media coverage fulfill its external governance role by guiding public opinion, facilitating the green transformation and contributing to achieving the dual-carbon target? This study examines the effect of carbon news coverage on the green transformation of enterprises in Chinese A-share listed enterprises from 2013 to 2021. The finding suggests carbon news coverage significantly enhances the corporate green transformation. Furthermore, the impact of different news topics and sentiments on driving this transformation varies. The mechanism analysis shows that carbon news coverage helps enterprises transition by alleviating financing constraints, strengthening environmental information disclosure, and increasing R&D investment. Further study reveals that the carbon emissions trading market and carbon news coverage serve as multiple co-regulations of formal and informal environmental regulation, synergistically advancing enterprises' green transformation. In light of the results, relevant references are provided for enterprise sustainable growth and establishing a comprehensive media information-sharing mechanism.
