Caleres's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, Caleres reported carbon emissions of approximately 5,250,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and about 38,950,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2. This reflects a slight increase in Scope 1 emissions compared to 2022, where they were approximately 5,020,000 kg CO2e, while Scope 2 emissions decreased from about 40,380,000 kg CO2e in the previous year. Over the years, Caleres has demonstrated a commitment to reducing its carbon footprint. In 2022, the company disclosed its Scope 3 emissions, which totalled approximately 717,580,000 kg CO2e, indicating a significant area for potential improvement. However, as of now, Caleres has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other formal climate pledges. The company’s emissions intensity for Scopes 1 and 2 has shown a decreasing trend, with a value of approximately 0.0000143 metric tons CO2e per $1M in revenue in 2022, down from 0.0000200 metric tons CO2e in 2020. This suggests ongoing efforts to improve operational efficiency and reduce emissions relative to revenue. Overall, while Caleres has made strides in emissions reporting and intensity reduction, the absence of formal reduction targets highlights an area for future focus in their climate strategy.
