In a previous blog post, we discussed the concepts of Net Zero and Carbon Footprint. In this blog post, we will focus on Scope 3 emissions, which are indirect emissions that are not included in Scope 2. These emissions are produced by an organisation’s value chain and can be categorised as either upstream or downstream emissions.
Downstream activities refer to emissions that are produced by an organisation’s suppliers, customers, or employees.
These can include emissions from the production of purchased goods and services, capital goods, fuel and energy-related activities, upstream transportation and distribution, waste generated in operations, business travel, employee commuting, and upstream leased assets.
On the other hand, upstream activities refer to emissions that are produced by third parties after a product or service has been sold.
These can include emissions from downstream transportation and distribution, processing of sold products, use of sold products, end-of-life treatment of sold products, downstream leased assets, franchises, and investments.
Understanding Scope 3 emissions is essential for organisations looking to reduce their carbon footprint and achieve net-zero emissions. By identifying and addressing the indirect emissions associated with their value chain, organisations can make a significant contribution to the fight against climate change.
If you are wanting to identify your carbon footprint, map out your road to zero carbon and achieve those goals we can help you.
We all worry about the expenses of the holiday season skyrocketing as it usually does every year, but what if we tell you that, it shouldn’t always be the case.

Winter is almost upon us. How ready are you for the change of the season?
We are approaching the part of the year when nearly everything around us, from your house decor down to your wardrobe, needs a change and that doesn’t even cover most of it. The biggest part of this change might be your energy bills.
