About This Talk

The UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change calls for cutting carbon emissions by 45% by 2030 and getting to net zero by 2050 to avert the worst impacts of climate change. Emissions attributed to the supply chain - also known as Scope 3 emissions - often account for more than 80% of a companys total carbon footprint, and can be challenging to act on, given they require influence over third party organizations.


In this session, we will discuss the business value of working with your suppliers to reduce carbon emissions. We will cover real-world examples of implementation challenges and best practices for companies working to reduce their carbon footprint. Attend this session to gain valuable insights on how companies are raising the bar on their ESG goals and successfully decarbonizing their supply chain.
