Significant gapsPending Review-12 since last review

easyJet reports verified emissions but absolute CO₂ is rising 7.93% annually despite intensity improvements. The airline has no meaningful renewable energy transition, relies on intensity-based targets rather than absolute cuts, and faces multiple greenwashing accusations including EU regulatory enforcement in 2025. Weak nature disclosure and negligible SAF usage complete a picture of insufficient climate action.
