IKEA Limited's reported carbon emissions
In 2016, IKEA Limited reported total carbon emissions of approximately 39,992,548,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes Scope 1 emissions of about 209,484,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions of approximately 621,932,000 kg CO2e, and a significant contribution from Scope 3 emissions, which totalled around 39,161,131,000 kg CO2e. IKEA Limited's emissions data is cascaded from its parent company, Ingka Holding B.V., reflecting the broader corporate family's sustainability efforts. However, there are currently no specific reduction targets or climate pledges disclosed by IKEA Limited. The absence of documented reduction initiatives suggests that while the company is aware of its carbon footprint, it has not yet committed to formal targets or strategies for emissions reduction. As a current subsidiary of Ingka Holding B.V., IKEA Limited aligns with the sustainability initiatives of its parent company, which may include broader commitments to reduce carbon emissions across its operations. The company is part of an industry increasingly focused on climate action, yet specific details on its individual commitments remain vague.
