CSR · Climate & carbon
Milk drives more than four fifths of a cheese's emissions, and how much milk a cheese needs depends on its family. What that means for makers, mongers and buyers.
CSR · Climate & carbon
Most first carbon footprints end at the report. What separates companies that reduce emissions from companies that measure them again, and what to decide before the results meeting closes.
CSR · Climate & carbon
Aerospace suppliers are asked for carbon data by primes who are themselves being asked. How to answer and ask with one data set, and what defense confidentiality permits.
CSR · Climate & carbon
Ingredients and packaging dominate a cosmetics footprint, and buyers increasingly ask at product level. When a company footprint is enough, and when you need an LCA.
CSR · Climate & carbon
A retailer's emissions sit almost entirely in goods bought for resale and in moving them. How to segment thousands of product lines without stalling on data.
CSR · Climate & carbon
Concrete and steel outweigh everything a site burns. How to model per project, where material data already exists, and why the real lever sits before the purchase order.
CSR · Climate & carbon
Purchased components are the largest line in an electronics footprint, and the data belongs to suppliers who mostly don't have it. How to run the request as a campaign.
CSR · Climate & carbon
A software company's footprint is almost entirely scope 3: travel, commuting, purchased services and cloud. Where to look, and which data you can really get.
CSR · Climate & carbon
For a carrier, fuel burned in your own trucks is scope 1 and often dominates the footprint. How to measure from fuel cards and telematics, and where the levers are.
CSR · Climate & carbon
Industrial emissions concentrate in process energy and purchased materials. How to scope by site, collect at the meter, and steer by an intensity the plant controls.
CSR · Climate & carbon
The physical method is more accurate, the monetary method is available. Solid footprints use both, deliberately. How to decide, emission source by emission source.
CSR · Climate & carbon
Collection is the longest phase of a carbon footprint. Which department holds which data, the document to ask for, and the one topic that deserves a questionnaire.
CSR · Climate & carbon
A first carbon footprint fails on sequencing, not on math. How to fix the scope in writing, appoint contributors, and give collection the months it needs.
