Currently, 7-Eleven does not have specific reduction targets or climate pledges documented, and their climate initiatives are cascaded from their parent company, Seven & I Holdings Co., Ltd. This relationship indicates that while 7-Eleven is actively reporting its emissions, it relies on the broader corporate strategies and commitments established by its parent organisation for climate action. Overall, 7-Eleven's emissions profile highlights the significant impact of its supply chain and operational activities, particularly in Scope 3 emissions, underscoring the need for comprehensive strategies to address climate change effectively.
