Case Studies: Using Incentives, Technology and a Little Coercion to Help Suppliers Decarbonize
Scope 3 emissions often make up the largest single component of an organization’s carbon footprint — and are just as often the most difficult to reduce.
For many companies, emissions associated with raw materials, transport, product use and other Scope 3 categories are the most daunting obstacle on the journey to net zero. But innovative solutions are emerging as companies experiment with new ways of working with value-chain partners. You’ll hear from leaders who have created incentive programs for suppliers, technology solutions for managing the complexity of supply networks and legal agreements that require suppliers to cut emissions.
