Scope 3 and COP 27: takeaways and next steps – November 2022 – Recording
With COP27 comes a growing recognition that the time for accelerating climate action is now, building on the ambitions set, and implementing pathways to a low carbon future. Many businesses are leading the way, with over one fifth of the world’s largest publicly-listed companies having already pledged Net-Zero commitments by 2050, and making critical steps towards meeting these targets. Scope 3 sources represent on average 75% of an organization’s carbon footprint, making action in Scope 3 vital to meet these ambitions and a Net-Zero world. In many cases Scope 3 emissions are also the most difficult to measure, track and manage; requiring new innovations, partnerships and solutions to tackle these complex challenges. In this one-hour webinar, the Value Change Initiative brings together leading experts and organizations to share reflections on COP27 through the lens of Scope 3 action.
