Amazon's action raises concerns about its climate pledge

Amazon.com, which previously committed to having half of its shipments be net-zero carbon by 2030, as part of its plan to be net-zero across all its operations by 2040. The retail, tech and logistics giant said it was bringing its "Shipment Zero" initiative into its broader climate pledge rather than highlighting a single aspect of its program. Reports have suggested that Amazon has failed to adequately assess its carbon footprint, raising concerns that it is not being transparent with stakeholders.
