Tractor Supply’s third annual report about climate-related risk

Tractor Supply Company, the largest rural lifestyle retailer in the United States, released its 2021 Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) report. For the third consecutive year, the report is aligned with the TCFD’s recommendations for climate disclosure and includes information on Tractor Supply’s operations structured around four thematic areas: governance, strategy, risk management and metrics and targets. Tractor Supply has set absolute carbon reduction targets to reduce emissions from its operations: the targets are 20 per cent by 2025 and 50 per cent by 2030, with the ultimate goal of achieving net zero emissions across all operations by 2040. In this context, the retailer also announced a new water conservation goal, to conserve 25 million gallons of water by 2025.
