YO! Sushi claims to have assessed its greenhouse gas emissions across all scopes but publishes no figures, baselines, or targets. The company operates 66 restaurants and 500+ kiosks with significant energy and supply chain footprints yet discloses nothing on emissions trajectory, renewable energy, water impact, or science-based targets. A vague net-zero ambition for 2050 is not a commitment.
