Once we decide where to go, we start looking for the shortest path. The same goes for pursuing net-zero carbon emissions and other sustainability goals. Once we muster the will to take the first step, we pack what we think we’ll need for the trip, and begin seeking ways to smooth and straighten the road to going green.
Because net-zero targets and sustainability are almost impossible to approach as one big goal, most overall efforts are broken up into smaller programs and projects. For instance, the
Greenhouse Gas Protocol classifies a company’s GHG emissions as direct emissions from its owned or controlled sources (Scope 1), indirect emissions from generating purchased energy (Scope 2), and indirect emissions, not included in Scopes 1 and 2, which occur in the value chain of the reporting company (Scope 3), including upstream emissions by its contractors and suppliers, and downstream emissions by its clients and customers.
