However, sales increased at a higher rate than emissions during this period, showing a relative slowdown of supplier emissions compared to sales growth. 18 2020 total scope 3 figure has been restated to 12.0% from the 16.5% reported last year. This restatement is due to: the application of The Emissions & Generation Resource Integrated Database (eGRID) factors by year to the Use of Sold Product category; U.S. EPA WARM fact or decreases in End of Life; and an adjustment to remove emissions Target is already accounting for in the PGS category. 19 Changes in sales from 2017 to 2021 drove a 26.2% increase in retail PGS emissions. Supplier-reported emission reductions, which are part of our net emissions calculations, were not yet reported for 2021 at the time of publication and are not reflected in this figure. 20 Supplier-reported emission reductions and greening of the electricity grid accounted for a 5.3% reduction in emissions in 2020. In 2020, suppliers reported 2019 scope 1 and 2 reductions through CDP and Higg FEM increased by over 70%. 21 PGS was restated from 29,177,000 mtCO 2 e when the footprint was re-run this year. This includes reductions from greening of the grid and supplier reported reductions. Major drivers of change include LCA emission factor updates and more precise weight calculations. 22 Upstream transportation does not currently include the emissions associated with chilled, temperate or frozen truck movements, which is conservatively estimated to be less than 7% of Target’s annual sales. Target has taken action to address this gap in measurement. 23 Our business travel emissions estimate includes passenger miles on commercial airlines. We used emissions factors from the U.S. EPA Climate Leaders Business Module. Global warming potentials are fr om the IPCC’s Second Assessment Report. We did not apply a radiative forcing adjustment to the verified airline travel emissions. Corporate jet emissions are included as part of our scope 1 calculations. 2022 Target ESG Report 21
