TJX has documented Scope 1+2 reductions and renewable energy progress, but supply chain emissions remain almost entirely unreported. No Scope 3 target exists despite 20,000+ vendors globally. Water impact is unquantified, biodiversity action is minimal, and the off-price business model structurally depends on fashion overproduction.
Same formula for every company. No curve. No private weighting.
