A Practical Approach to Scope 3 Greenhouse Gas Management, TAPPICon25

The WHY: Our presentation will set the stage for attendees by providing insight into the various regulatory and non-regulatory drivers influencing sustainability programs for the pulp & paper industry. We will include a discussion on the growing trend toward Scope 3 disclosures and how these drivers are impacting the sector specifically.

The WHAT: Our presentation will provide a brief primer on the 15 categories of Scope 3 – those indirect emissions that occur in the value chain — representing a substantial portion of the industry's carbon footprint. This presentation aims to provide insight into the relevance and materiality of those 15 categories for the pulp and paper sector.

The HOW: The presentation will focus on practical and actionable strategies for companies that are just getting started with preparing a Scope 3 GHG inventory, as well as those looking to fill gaps or otherwise improve the robustness of their Scope 3 estimates. We will address challenges around activity data collection and explore the hierarchy of calculation methods for quantifying Scope 3 emissions, including the benefits of using life cycle assessment (LCA). Attendees will learn how digital solutions can help navigate these challenges to facilitate supplier engagement, identify sustainable sourcing opportunities, and promote circularity to improve overall sustainability and environmental performance.
