Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions

Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions categorize a company's greenhouse gas footprint based on their direct and indirect sources. Scope 1 covers direct emissions from owned or controlled sources, like company vehicles or manufacturing processes. Scope 2 includes indirect emissions from purchasing electricity, heating, or cooling. Scope 3 encompasses other indirect emissions from the company's value chain, such as suppliers, product use, or waste disposal. These categories help organizations understand and manage their overall environmental impact across all activities related to their operations.
