💨 Abstract

Inditex, owner of Zara, has significantly increased the use of air freight for transporting clothes from India to Spain to avoid shipping delays. This shift raises concerns about the retailer's progress towards reducing its indirect emissions, as air transport produces higher carbon emissions than shipping. The increased air freight could potentially boost Inditex's transport emissions, which have already increased by 37% in the past year.
