The Scope 3 Reduction Playbook: Granular Data, Supplier Engagement, and Defensible Forecasting
How do food companies move from estimated Scope 3 emissions baselines to a credible, data-driven reduction pathway?
For teams working to turn Scope 3 targets into a clearly-defined reduction strategy, the challenge is no longer simply calculating emissions. Instead, it’s building the data, supplier relationships, and forecasting capabilities needed to develop a credible plan. That means moving beyond averages to more granular, supplier-verified data; creating meaningful feedback loops with suppliers; and translating planned initiatives into forecasts that reflect the realities of your supply chain.
Join HowGood and Danone for an in-depth discussion on how to build a cohesive and collaborative approach to scope 3 reduction. We’ll walk through how (and when) to strengthen data quality, engage supplies in ways that support long-term collaboration, and incorporate supplier-level initiatives into your emissions forecasts and corporate climate targets.
We’ll also hear from Danone on the creation of the Danone Impact Journey, and how they’ve used this approach to advance progress against their climate targets.
You’ll walk away with:
A roadmap for better Scope 3 data — from averages to supplier-verified emissions factors.
A stronger supplier engagement strategy — building two-way relationships that lead to long-term collaboration
A way to quantify planned action — translating supplier initiatives into forecasted emissions reduction and corporate climate targets
