7-Eleven's reported carbon emissions

Inherited from Seven & i Holdings Co., Ltd.

As of the latest available data, 7-Eleven does not report specific carbon emissions figures, indicating a lack of detailed emissions data for the most recent year. The company is a current subsidiary of Seven & i Holdings Co., Ltd., which may influence its climate commitments and reporting practices. 7-Eleven has not outlined specific reduction targets or achievements in its emissions strategy. However, it is important to note that its climate initiatives and commitments are likely aligned with those of its parent company, Seven & i Holdings Co., Ltd. This includes participation in various climate-related initiatives such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP), which are aimed at reducing greenhouse gas emissions across its operations. Given the absence of specific emissions data, 7-Eleven's climate commitments remain somewhat vague. The company is expected to follow the broader sustainability goals set by its parent organisation, which may include targets for renewable energy usage and overall emissions reductions in the retail sector.
