We take climate change very seriously and work very hard to minimize our carbon footprint. We do this by buying less plastic and more renewable materials (everything which grows) – and we also want to make sure that all stores are run on renewable energy. We walk the talk – and make sure that what we do is validated by external experts, in the Science Based Targets initiative.
