Deliveroo reports only partial Scope 1 & 2 emissions for Great Britain with no third-party verification, and has completely failed to quantify Scope 3 emissions from 180,000 riders and packaging waste. Scope 1 emissions rose 37% year-on-year. The company sets unvalidated targets covering only 5% of its actual footprint while ignoring biodiversity, water, and circular economy impacts.
