Lenovo publishes credible climate data with third-party verification and SBTi-validated targets, but relies heavily on intensity-based Scope 3 metrics that allow absolute emissions to rise. Its 99% Scope 3 footprint remains largely uncontrolled. Nature impact is entirely unmapped. Transparency is strong; actual decarbonization leverage is weak.
Same formula for every company. No curve. No private weighting.
SINK = (0.3 × Base + 0.7 × Performance) × ScaleStrongest on Carbon Footprint — Operations and Transparency & Accountability (8/10, 8/10). Weakest on Nature & Biodiversity Impact and Emissions Trajectory (3/10, 4/10).
