The company has disclosed emissions data across all three scopes, indicating a commitment to transparency in its climate impact.

This lack of defined targets suggests that while La Poste is actively monitoring its emissions, it may need to establish clearer goals for future reductions to align with industry standards and expectations for climate action.
