Wickes demonstrates competent climate baseline reporting with SBTi-validated near-term targets and verified Scope 1&2 emissions, but total emissions rose year-on-year and trajectory remains unclear. Supply chain dominates impact (98% Scope 3) yet lacks measurable reduction. Nature and circular economy programmes are nascent with no quantified footprints.
