Bath And Body Works's reported carbon emissions

Bath & Body Works has established ambitious climate commitments, including a significant target to reduce absolute Scope 1 and Scope 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 63% by 2035, using a 2022 baseline year. This target aligns with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and is considered consistent with keeping warming to 1.5°C. They also commit to a 63% reduction in absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions within the same timeframe. In the near term, Bath & Body Works aims for a 50% reduction in Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions by 2030. The company is actively pursuing opportunities for increased energy and fuel efficiency to achieve these goals. They also plan to adhere to net-zero guidance on the use of offsets by 2050. For the reporting year 2025, Bath & Body Works reported total absolute emissions of approximately 1.31 billion kg CO2e. Scope 3 emissions were the largest contributor, totalling approximately 1.46 billion kg CO2e. Key Scope 3 categories include purchased goods and services (approximately 1.05 billion kg CO2e) and the use of sold products (approximately 1.10 billion kg CO2e). Scope 1 emissions were approximately 20.49 million kg CO2e, and Scope 2 emissions (market-based) were approximately 38.32 million kg CO2e. In 2024, total absolute emissions were approximately 92.27 million kg CO2e. Scope 1 emissions were approximately 17.16 million kg CO2e, and Scope 2 emissions (market-based) were approximately 44.33 million kg CO2e. Scope 3 data was not fully disclosed for this year. For 2023, total absolute emissions reached approximately 1.37 billion kg CO2e. Scope 3 emissions accounted for approximately 1.47 billion kg CO2e, with purchased goods and services (approximately 1.07 billion kg CO2e) and the use of sold products (approximately 1.23 billion kg CO2e) being the most significant contributors. Scope 1 emissions were approximately 17.60 million kg CO2e, and Scope 2 emissions (market-based) were approximately 59.34 million kg CO2e. In 2022, the company reported total absolute emissions of approximately 1.31 billion kg CO2e. Scope 3 emissions represented the largest portion, at approximately 1.44 billion kg CO2e, driven primarily by purchased goods and services (approximately 1.17 billion kg CO2e) and the use of sold products (approximately 1.17 billion kg CO2e). Scope 1 emissions were around 18.37 million kg CO2e, and Scope 2 emissions (market-based) were approximately 58.17 million kg CO2e. In 2021, total absolute emissions were approximately 530.41 million kg CO2e. Scope 2 emissions (market-based) were approximately 99.88 million kg CO2e, and Scope 1 emissions were approximately 15.52 million kg CO2e. Scope 3 emissions included upstream transportation and distribution at approximately 466.75 million kg CO2e. For 2020, total absolute emissions were approximately 207.54 million kg CO2e, with Scope 2 emissions (market-based) at approximately 140.38 million kg CO2e and Scope 1 emissions at approximately 19.11 million kg CO2e. Scope 3 emissions, including upstream transportation and distribution, were approximately 273.30 million kg CO2e. In 2019, Scope 2 emissions (market-based) were approximately 239.62 million kg CO2e. Data for Scope 1 and Scope 3 emissions was not available for this year. Bath & Body Works, headquartered in the US, does not currently cascade emissions data from a parent organisation.
