Prada has cut operational emissions 34% against 2019 baseline, beating its SBTi target. But Scope 3—which represents 90% of total footprint—has barely moved (1% year-on-year). Water disclosure is minimal, biodiversity impacts unquantified, and animal welfare policy remains weak despite external criticism.
