Sephora's reported carbon emissions

Sephora, headquartered in the US, currently does not provide specific carbon emissions data for recent years, as no emissions figures are available. Consequently, there are no reported Scope 1, 2, or 3 emissions figures to analyse. In the absence of concrete emissions data, it is important to note that Sephora has not outlined any specific reduction targets or initiatives related to carbon emissions. This lack of publicly available information on their climate commitments suggests that the company may still be in the early stages of developing a comprehensive sustainability strategy. As the beauty industry increasingly prioritises sustainability, Sephora's future climate commitments will be crucial in aligning with industry standards and consumer expectations. The absence of detailed emissions data and reduction targets highlights an opportunity for Sephora to enhance transparency and take significant steps towards climate action.
