Wayfair's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, Wayfair reported total carbon emissions of approximately 4,237,000,000 kg CO2e, with significant contributions from Scope 3 emissions, which accounted for about 4,199,308,000 kg CO2e. Scope 1 emissions were approximately 18,266,000 kg CO2e, while Scope 2 emissions totalled about 18,955,000 kg CO2e. This data reflects a slight increase in Scope 3 emissions compared to 2022, where total emissions were about 4,162,086,000 kg CO2e, indicating a growing impact from purchased goods and services. Wayfair has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. The company’s emissions data is self-reported and does not appear to be cascaded from a parent organisation. The absence of formal reduction commitments suggests that Wayfair is currently focusing on transparency in emissions reporting rather than on specific reduction goals. Overall, Wayfair's emissions profile highlights the challenges faced by e-commerce companies in managing their carbon footprint, particularly in the area of supply chain emissions.
