Insight
However, scope 3 emissions remained difficult to accurately characterise, causing challenges in reporting and risking significant year-on-year changes to reported figures resulting from previously unreported emissions data. Entities within this sector remained vigilant to these issues and have increased their attempts to improve reporting accuracy by requiring substantial suppliers to disclose their emissions figures. This has allowed them to better identify high-risk suppliers and consider switching to more sustainable suppliers to reduce emissions.

Insight
While there are differences in short and medium-term targets, in the long-term, these entities generally have consistent goals of reaching net zero for scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions by 2050 or sooner. The industrials entities also aimed to accomplish this by employing similar strategies to achieve those goals, including transitioning to renewable energy, optimising operations to reduce fuel use, and engaging stakeholders in reduction efforts. They also support policy initiatives for sectoral decarbonisation, for example, by collaborating with government, business, and industry to develop sustainable emissions reductions solutions.
