Scope 1 emissions were about 22,389,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 2 emissions were approximately 78,526,000 kg CO2e, indicating a slight increase in energy consumption. Despite these figures, Joann has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives, nor have they disclosed any climate pledges. The absence of reduction targets suggests that while Joann is aware of its carbon footprint, it may not yet have formalised a strategy for significant emissions reductions. The emissions data is not cascaded from any parent organisation, indicating that these figures are solely from Joann Inc. itself.
