Effectively calculating and reducing Scope 3 Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions emerges as a key challenge, particularly for sustainability and procurement professionals.
Scope 3 emissions encompass all indirect emissions from activities both upstream and downstream in the supply chain, and they often form a substantial part of an organization’s carbon footprint. However, they remain significantly under-addressed, largely due to their complexity and the difficulty involved in their measurement and management.
This eBook provides a practical guide for professionals aiming to understand how to get started on addressing and measuring Scope 3 emissions. For those unfamiliar with the terminology, the guide begins by breaking down the concept of Scope 3, exploring its relevance, sources, and significance in the context of modern business practices.
