LONDON - More than 60 retailers, including Burberry, Missguided, ASOS and Primark have pledged to support the British Retail Consortium's Climate Action Roadmap which sets a target of net-zero emissions by 2040.
The BRC's roadmap applies to the sector's direct operations and its entire global supply chain, and includes decarbonising stores by 2030, deliveries by 2035 and products by 2040.
Outlined at the UNFCCC Race to Zero Dialogues online event today (10 November), the Climate Action Roadmap includes plans to reduce emissions from shops and distribution centres, create net-zero logistics operations, increase sustainable sourcing for products, and help customers and employees reduce emissions.
