Just Eat Takeaway operates across 17 markets but has fundamental gaps in climate accountability. Scope 3 emissions represent 99% of its footprint yet are ignored in net-zero targets. Intensity-based goals mask absolute emissions growth. No biodiversity, water, or supplier engagement strategy exists despite the company's central role in global food systems.
