Walmart warns it will miss 2025 and 2030 targets as sales growth push up emissions
Walmart’s operational emissions have been creeping up since 2021.
US retail giant Walmart’s recent emissions rise means that its 2025 target of reducing its operational carbon footprint by 35% is effectively out of reach.
The company quietly published a climate change update at the end of 2024, noting that Scope 1 and 2 emissions increased by 3.9% in 2023 “due to business growth and other factors”.
