Explore this paper to examine renewable energy as a scope 3 decarbonization solution, so you can build a successful supplier program.
Scope 3 emissions are made up of 15 categories of emissions and typically account for a vast majority of an organization’s total emissions footprint. Of those 15 categories, Category 1, Purchased Goods & Services, ranks in the top three highest emissions sources for organizations across all sectors. Want to learn more about your Category 1? […]
Is your supplier engagement program action-oriented? Does it inspire your suppliers to take an action that reduces their emissions, right now? If not, you are not alone. Most supplier programs are more circumspect – they ask suppliers to consider interim steps: set a goal, calculate a footprint, or even, attend a webinar! Engaging suppliers directly […]

However, organizations that collaborate with their suppliers will be in a stronger position to implement successful value chain interventions and […]
When it comes to measuring and managing your greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, your direct emissions aren’t the only ones that matter. In fact, indirect emissions, particularly scope 3 emissions, can comprise the bulk of your overall corporate emissions. Plus, scope 3 emissions are typically the hardest to track and reduce, because companies can only influence—not […]
The need for companies to understand the emissions footprint of their value chain is becoming standard practice, but that doesn’t mean it’s easy to do. To best account for the opportunities and risks associated with your scope 3 emissions, organizations need to understand both their value chain’s effect on climate change and the possible effects […]
Learn how 3Degrees helped build an emissions roadmap for a Consumer Goods Company on its journey to reaching near-term targets by 2030.
As organizations around the world take action to address climate change, many are committing to ambitious climate goals, including net zero carbon emissions, carbon neutrality and science-based targets. However, knowing the proper steps to take to achieve climate goals can sometimes be a challenge, particularly as it relates to scope 3 value chain emissions. Value […]
