In 2023, Jumbo reported a total of approximately 7,451,000 kg CO2e in Scope 3 emissions, alongside a combined total of about 79,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and 2 emissions. This marks a significant reduction from previous years, where in 2022, Scope 3 emissions were approximately 7,710,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 1 and 2 emissions totalled about 229,000,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and 234,000,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2. Jumbo's emissions data for 2021 and 2020 showed consistent figures for Scope 1 and 2 emissions, with both years reporting approximately 228,000,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and 234,000,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2, while Scope 3 emissions were significantly higher at approximately 10,677,000,000 kg CO2e in 2020 and 10,677,000,000 kg CO2e in 2021. Despite these reductions, Jumbo has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of their climate strategy. The absence of documented reduction targets suggests that while emissions data is being tracked, a formalised approach to emissions reduction may still be in development. Overall, Jumbo's emissions profile indicates a focus on monitoring and potentially reducing their carbon footprint, particularly in Scope 3 emissions, which represent the majority of their total emissions.
