PureGym reports basic Scope 1&2 emissions but ignores major Scope 3 categories, masking true supply chain impact. Absolute emissions are rising despite intensity claims. The company has no renewable energy strategy, no nature policy, no absolute reduction targets, and no formal commitments beyond vague 2026 promises. Growth-focused with minimal accountability.
Same formula for every company. No curve. No private weighting.
