Jet2's absolute emissions rose 20% in two years while intensity improved—a classic aviation greenwashing pattern. Unvalidated intensity targets, withdrawn SBTi commitment, negligible SAF uptake (<0.04% of fuel), and structural silence on non-CO2 warming effects define material weaknesses across climate and nature disclosure.
