Identifying Emissions Sources, Mitigating Risk, and Demonstrating Environmental Responsibility

Identifying Emissions Sources, Mitigating Risk, and Demonstrating Environmental Responsibility   

Corporate value chain (Scope 3) accounting allows companies to assess their entire supply chain emissions impact and identify where to focus abatement activities. Scope 3 emissions account for the goods a company purchases to the end of use of products the company sells. The GHG Protocol released the Scope 3 Standard in 2011 and it is the only internationally accepted method. Both upstream and downstream channels are accounted for via 15 categories. Benefits of measuring Scope 3 emissions are identifying which suppliers are leaders, locating hotspots across the value chain, and encouraging product innovation to create energy-efficient products.
