Five Below, Inc.'s reported carbon emissions

Five Below, Inc., headquartered in the US, currently does not have publicly available carbon emissions data for the most recent year, nor does it report specific reduction targets or initiatives related to climate commitments. The absence of emissions data suggests that the company may not have established a comprehensive framework for tracking its carbon footprint or may not have disclosed this information publicly. As of now, Five Below, Inc. does not appear to have cascaded emissions data from any parent or related organisations, indicating that it operates independently in terms of climate reporting. The company has not committed to any specific science-based targets or climate pledges, which may limit its accountability in addressing climate change. In the broader context of the retail industry, many companies are increasingly adopting sustainability measures and setting ambitious targets to reduce their carbon emissions. However, without specific data or commitments from Five Below, Inc., it remains unclear how the company aligns with these industry trends.
