This figure includes 16,126,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, 59,446,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions (market-based), and a significant 1,232,933,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions, which encompass a wide range of activities including purchased goods and services (684,022,000 kg CO2e) and upstream transportation and distribution (204,584,000 kg CO2e).

This indicates a substantial reliance on energy-intensive operations. Despite the extensive emissions data, Victoria's Secret has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives, as indicated by the absence of documented reduction targets or climate pledges. This lack of formal commitments may reflect broader industry challenges in addressing climate change effectively. Overall, while Victoria's Secret has made strides in measuring its carbon footprint, the absence of clear reduction strategies highlights an area for potential improvement in its climate commitments.
