Despite the consistent total emissions over the past three years, Savers has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing their carbon footprint. The absence of documented reduction strategies suggests a need for enhanced climate commitments within the organisation. As Savers continues to operate in a climate-conscious industry, establishing clear reduction goals and initiatives will be crucial for aligning with global sustainability efforts.
