This reflects a slight decrease in total emissions compared to 2022, where total emissions were approximately 58,780,000 kg CO2e. Over the years, Lotte Hi Mart has shown a trend of fluctuating emissions. In 2021, the company recorded total emissions of about 50,757,000 kg CO2e, with significant contributions from Scope 3 emissions, which reached approximately 10,062,381,000 kg CO2e. The company’s Scope 2 emissions peaked in 2018 at about 83,620,000 kg CO2e, indicating a substantial reduction in subsequent years. Despite these figures, Lotte Hi Mart has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. The absence of defined reduction targets suggests a need for enhanced climate commitments in line with industry standards. Overall, while Lotte Hi Mart has made progress in managing its carbon footprint, the lack of formal reduction targets highlights an opportunity for the company to strengthen its climate strategy and align with global sustainability goals.
