As organizations face mounting pressure to address their complete climate impact, the challenge of scope 3 emissions remains a critical hurdle, goal, and opportunity for real climate impact. As these indirect emissions are particularly complex to manage due to their distribution across vast networks of suppliers, subsidiaries, and business partners, companies must grapple with how to coordinate climate action effectively across diverse stakeholders while maintaining consistent quality standards and measurable impact.

The landscape is further complicated by evolving regulatory requirements and increasing stakeholder expectations for transparent, verifiable climate action. Organizations are seeking ways to scale their climate initiatives beyond their direct operations but face significant challenges in standardizing approaches across their value chain, ensuring quality control in carbon credit procurement, and maintaining autonomous operations while adhering to centralized sustainability goals.

All of this has created an urgent need for practical solutions that can help companies extend their climate programs effectively across their business ecosystem while maintaining rigorous standards and measurable outcomes.
