Almost one year ago, Walmart launched its project Gigaton
Considering that Walmart is only committing to reducing their own emissions (Scope 1 and 2) by 18%, and putting most of the pressure on its supply chain, do you think this is a great initiative... or is it just greenwashing?
"Walmart is the first retailer with a verified science-based target emissions-reduction plan. The company aims to reduce its absolute Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 18 percent by 2025. The retailer will also work to reduce CO2e, or carbon dioxide equivalent, emissions from upstream and downstream Scope 3 sources by one billion tons (a gigaton) between 2015 and 2030."
