Greggs has solid emissions reporting and renewable energy progress, but absolute operational emissions are flat despite 41.8% intensity gains. Scope 3 quantification remains incomplete, water data is absent, and the 2030 SBTi target of 46.2% absolute reduction is a significant gap given current trajectory.
