This includes about 13,616,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, which are direct emissions from owned or controlled sources.

Additionally, Scope 3 emissions, which encompass all other indirect emissions, totalled about 16,019,000 kg CO2e, with waste generated in operations contributing approximately 37,738,000 kg CO2e. Despite the significant emissions figures, QVC, Inc. has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing their carbon footprint. The absence of defined climate commitments suggests that while the company is aware of its emissions, it may not yet have established a formal strategy for reduction or engagement with frameworks such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). As the retail industry increasingly prioritises sustainability, QVC's future climate commitments will be crucial in aligning with global efforts to mitigate climate change.
