Update: 2024-08-01
Description
Significant impact: Scope 3 emissions in supply chains are 26 times higher than direct operational emissions, highlighting the need for companies to address upstream emissions alongside Scopes 1 and 2.
– Challenges and gaps: Only 15% of companies have set targets for upstream Scope 3 emissions due to complexities in data collection, lack of supply chain transparency, and prioritization of direct emissions.
– Key actions for improvement: The report suggests three critical factors for addressing Scope 3 emissions: having a climate-responsible board, engaging suppliers for transparency and emission reductions, and adopting internal carbon pricing to incentivize low-carbon practices.
