The Challenge
Earth’s resources are finite, but our demands from it are unlimited. Overconsumption and rampant exploitation of natural resources have led to untold environmental damage. In the face of severe environmental challenges such as extreme climate events, sustainable living is our only hope for the planet.
Sustainability in business has three major components—environmental, social, and governance (ESG). The ESG framework is increasingly being used as a yardstick by investors to encourage organizations to be more environmentally responsible.
- The environment component refers to how an organization contributes towards safeguarding the environment.
- The social component shows how an organization manages its relationship with the employees, customers, vendors, suppliers, and the community in which it operates.
- The governance component refers to an organization’s leadership, audits, administrative needs, and shareholder rights.
The keen interest in the importance of ESG to consumers, employees, and investors, and policymakers are paying attention to carbon mitigation policies, are substantial now. This makes it more vital than ever for companies to understand measure their carbon footprint.
A firm knowledge of the size of an organization’s carbon footprint and its composition helps quantify its exposure from ESG reporting and carbon-related policy changes and identify focus areas for strategic changes.
A company-specific customizable sustainability tool is key to creating accurate ESG reports, alternate environment-friendly solutions and building decarbonization strategies.
A recent survey indicates that at least half of all investors surveyed say that sustainability is “fundamental” to their investment strategy.
So, what is sustainability and carbon emission scope 1, 2 & 3?
Sustainability can be best defined as meeting our needs without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.
The carbon footprint of an organization can be divided into Scope 1, Scope 2, and Scope 3 of carbon emissions. These Scopes follow the Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Protocol generally used in ESG reporting.
Scope 1 emissions are direct emissions while Scope 2 and Scope 3 are indirect emissions.
- Scope 1 emissions occur from sources owned or controlled by a company.
- Scope 2 emissions are supply-chain emissions associated with the purchase of electricity, steam, heat or cooling and are a result of the organization's energy use..
- Scope 3 emissions are all other supply-chain emissions.
Every organization must work towards net-zero emissions for a sustainable future. To do that you need to identify the scope of the emissions (as listed above), quantify it and then analyse the data to understand how to tailor and implement an effective decarbonization strategy.
