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 suppliers 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
