Retail Council's reported carbon emissions

Retail Council, headquartered in CA, currently does not report any carbon emissions data, as indicated by the absence of specific figures in kg CO2e. Additionally, there are no documented reduction targets or climate pledges associated with the organisation. This lack of data suggests that Retail Council may not have established formal commitments to reduce carbon emissions or may be in the early stages of developing such initiatives. In the context of the retail industry, many organisations are increasingly focusing on sustainability and climate action, often setting science-based targets to align with global climate goals. However, without specific emissions data or commitments, it is challenging to assess Retail Council's position within this evolving landscape.
