TLDR

Setting two emission targets—one for Scope 1 & 2 (direct and energy-related emissions) and another for Scope 3 (supply chain and product-related emissions)—is more effective than focusing on just one. This approach helps businesses reduce their entire carbon footprint, align with global sustainability standards, and improve efficiency across operations and supply chains.

It also strengthens brand reputation, mitigates risks, and prepares companies for future regulations. By addressing both operational and external emissions, businesses can achieve more comprehensive sustainability goals and unlock cost savings.
