The company has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of its climate commitments, indicating a need for further action in this area. Deliveroo's emissions intensity ratio, based on revenue, was approximately 0.00393 tCO2e/£m in 2023, reflecting the company's ongoing efforts to manage its carbon footprint relative to its financial performance. However, the absence of defined reduction targets suggests that Deliveroo may need to enhance its climate strategy to align with industry standards and expectations.
