This marks a notable increase in emissions compared to previous years, reflecting the company's expanding operations. In 2022, Deliveroo's emissions were about 12,018,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 4,203,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at 7,815,000 kg CO2e. The company has not disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives, indicating a lack of formal commitments to reduce emissions at this time. Deliveroo's emissions intensity ratio for 2022 was approximately 0.00426 tCO2e per £1 million in revenue, showing a slight improvement from previous years. The company continues to operate within the food delivery sector, which is under increasing scrutiny for its environmental impact, particularly regarding delivery logistics and packaging waste. Overall, while Deliveroo has made strides in reporting its emissions, the absence of defined reduction targets suggests a need for more robust climate commitments to align with industry standards and expectations.
