Leadership Level CDP Ranking Since 2007, we have disclosed emissions data to CDP. Our CDP Climate Change response includes detailed information on our strategy and performance, enabling us to measure and manage our environmental impacts. As a result of our continuing efforts, we were awarded CDP’s A- ranking in 2021. This is the third consecutive year we have been recognized at the CDP’s Leadership Level, demonstrating a significant acknowledgment of our continued commitment to climate action. Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) Beginning in 2021, Kohl's climate-related disclosures are guided by using the TCFD framework. We plan to leverage the TCFD framework and recommendations as we continue our commitment to managing climate-related issues. Board Oversight Our governance practices form the foundation for how we manage risk, ensure accountability, and provide transparency to our stakeholders. The Nominating and ESG Committee of Kohl’s Board of Directors actively oversees our ESG initiatives to understand both risks and growth opportunities, as well as progress made against the company’s goals. To that end, the Nominating and ESG Committee receives regular updates on ESG topics from management and provides reports to the full Board of Directors. In this way, Kohl’s Board of Directors plays a vital role in shaping and supporting our long-term ESG strategies while addressing the Board’s oversight responsibilities related to the management and performance of ESG issues, all of which is essential to sustain the long-term interest of all stakeholders.

As part of the Risk Reduction Committee, the CRCO is responsible for assessing and managing climate risks and opportunities. Our Risk Reduction Committee allows for collaboration across key departments and includes members of the executive team. The committee has climate-related responsibilities, including assessing and managing risks and opportunities, and reports to the full Board on priority risks. The Committee’s input on climate-related issues provides key support to the Board. Climate-Related Risks Risks related to the transition to a lower-carbon economy include carbon pricing along with heightened policies and legislation for emission reporting. In addition to these transition risks, we also see firsthand how physical risks related to climate change affect our business. Unusual and potentially long-term shifts in climate patterns such as rising temperatures, storm intensity and rising sea levels can shift consumer shopping patterns and cause physical damage to our properties as well as to the communities we operate in.
