Emissions Targets
Everlane has GHG emissions targets that are science-aligned (but not SBTi approved). These targets are on the medium and long-term, and progress has been reported on them in the last year. They do not appear to be on track for these goals. Everlane offsets emissions primarily through customer opt-in shipping offsets, not an internal program.
Supply Chain & Labor
Everlane does not publish information about its supply chain partners. It has a supplier code of conduct, which includes provisions audits of partners, allowing collective bargaining.
