LEGO reports comprehensive Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions with third-party verification, but total emissions have risen 56% since its 2019 SBTi baseline despite a stated 37% reduction target. Operations and energy are well-managed; the real weakness is a growing supply chain footprint paired with a fundamentally linear plastic production model that contradicts net-zero ambitions.
