Key contributors to Scope 3 emissions include purchased goods and services (approximately 2.654 billion kg CO2e), employee commuting (about 126.359 million kg CO2e), and upstream transportation and distribution (around 226.116 million kg CO2e).

Emissions data for 2019 and 2018 only include Scope 1 and 2, amounting to approximately 46.019 million kg CO2e and 45.816 million kg CO2e respectively.

JD Sports has set ambitious climate commitments, with targets cascaded from its ultimate parent, JD Sports Fashion Plc. The company has a Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) commitment to reduce absolute Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions by 67.2% by 2035 from a 2019 base year. Additionally, JD Sports aims to increase its annual sourcing of renewable electricity from 45.9% in 2019-20 to 100% by 2025-26. For Scope 3, JD Sports commits that 74.0% of its suppliers, by emissions covering purchased goods and services and upstream transportation and distribution, will have science-based targets by 2031. The targets covering Scope 1 and 2 emissions are consistent with reductions required to keep warming to 1.5°C.
