But with Scope 3 emissions, it’s a completely different (and far more complex) ball game. This is because it covers off a wide range of activities that move upwards and downwards along a company’s supply chain, so it needs far greater scrutiny across a far greater range of activities, which include:
Business travel
Employee commuting
Greener travel
Waste disposal
The end use of products that are sold
Transportation and distribution of products, both into and out of the company
The choice and sourcing of raw materials
The activities of sub-contractors and other partners
Business investments, including company acquisitions
Leased assets and franchises
Our work in this area, coupled with the Carbon Disclosure Project, is as ambitious as it is time consuming as it not only involves significant data capture, but requires us to put in place the systems and frameworks for making it an every day part of what we do.
