What is the Scope 3?

For most companies, Scope 3 emissions—especially from upstream activities—are the biggest piece of the carbon puzzle. In fact, they’re on average 11 times higher than direct operational emissions.

(WEF, 2023)

Unlike Scope 1 and 2, which cover direct emissions and purchased energy, Scope 3 includes emissions from your entire value chain—spanning suppliers, transportation, product use, and more.

Why should you measure Scope 3 emissions?
  • Regulatory pressure is increasing
    Frameworks like the CSRD require companies to disclose Scope 3 emissions and establish a credible transition plan. As regulations tighten, accurate reporting is becoming a business necessity.
  • Your net-zero goals depend on it
    For most companies, Scope 3 emissions make up the bulk of their carbon footprint. Cutting operational emissions alone isn’t enough—reducing value chain emissions is essential to meeting climate commitments.
  • Supplier collaboration is critical
    Engaging suppliers with reliable data and a clear reduction strategy is the most effective way to drive real impact. A strong Scope 3 approach ensures transparency, compliance, and progress toward sustainability goals.
How to Measure Scope 3 Emissions?

Measuring Scope 3 emissions can feel overwhelming—they extend far beyond your own operations and often involve thousands of suppliers. But you don’t have to do it alone.

The key is upstream collaboration at scale. By working closely with suppliers and leveraging the right tools, you can streamline data collection, improve accuracy, and take meaningful action to cut emissions across your value chain.
