EDF+Business Webinar: Quantifying Scope 3 Emissions & Engaging Suppliers in Energy Reduction, October 18th at 1pm EDT

Establishing an accurate baseline and quantifying scope 3 emissions is a critical step in meeting both supply chain energy reduction goals and partner goals. But it can be challenging to translate that internal goal into supplier action.

Theresa Eberhardt of EDF+Business will discuss how to transition from the goal-setting phase to the implementation phase, guiding you through various tools and resources available. An EDF Climate Corps host will also be on hand to talk about their recent project this past summer on how they've approached quantifying their scope 3 emissions and where they are now.
