Tesco's Record on the Environment
California judge: Tesco distribution center noncompliant with environmental law
December 06, 2007 | Retail Week
"Another potential headache for Fresh & Easy is the legal challenges. In particular, Tesco must contend with a court ruling concerning the environmental impact of the construction of its Riverside distribution centre...a Riverside district judge ruled that the centre did not comply with the state's environmental planning legislation."
True impact of Tesco on environment as much as 12 times more than it claims
September 09, 2007 | The Observer
"Tesco's recent attempt to present itself as a force for environmental good appears to be backfiring, as evidence emerges that Britain's biggest retailer has severely underestimated its true contribution to climate change. Christian Aid believes that the true impact Tesco has on the environment could be as much as 12 times higher than the level the supermarket admits to."
Tesco accused of hypocrisy over carbon footprint
September 05, 2007 | The Telegraph
"Tesco, the UK's largest supermarket chain, is sending CDs and DVDs on a round journey of almost 1,400 miles in order to exploit a tax loophole that allows customers to avoid paying VAT. The disclosure is likely to spark allegations of hypocrisy - last year Tesco chief executive Sir Terry Leahy unveiled a "green plan" and pledged to reduce the retailer's carbon footprint."
