LCP reports only its own operations' emissions and car travel, 130 tCO2e in its 2025/26 year, and leaves the rest of its supply chain 'not quantified'. Its electricity is matched with renewable certificates, but it calls itself carbon neutral through undisclosed offsets and has no dated reduction target, with a roadmap first promised in 2021 still not published. Its reporting also leaves out its Irish and international businesses.
LCP scores 36/100 (Below expectations) on SINK's independent climate assessment, scored from public data only. Scores are free. Nobody can pay to change a score, speed it up or hide it. Last verified November 2026.
