Data is Key, The Importance of Accurate Emissions Measurement

In the fight against climate change, reliable data is our most powerful weapon. We can't manage what we don't measure, and that's especially true for greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.

Accurate emissions measurement is critical for effective climate action because it allows us to.

Identify Emission Hotspots: Pinpoint areas within our operations and supply chains that contribute the most to emissions. This data-driven approach helps us focus our efforts for maximum impact.

Drive Innovation: Precise data guides the development of new, sustainable technologies and practices. By understanding our emissions profile, we can target weak spots and invest in solutions.

Set SMART Goals: Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, and Time-bound goals are essential for any successful strategy. Accurate emissions data is the foundation for setting realistic and impact goals.

Track Progress and Demonstrate Transparency: Regular measurement allows us to monitor progress over time and showcase our commitment to sustainability. This builds trust with stakeholders and keeps us accountable.
