This indicates a slight reduction in total emissions from 2019 to 2020. Despite these figures, Inter Ikea Holding B.V. has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing their carbon footprint. The absence of documented reduction targets suggests a need for further commitment to climate action within the industry context. The company continues to face challenges in managing its extensive Scope 3 emissions, which represent the majority of its carbon footprint.
