How to Build a Winning Business Case for Scope 3 Decarbonisation
Linking Decarbonisation to Profitability and Growth
For most organisations, Scope 3 emissions, particularly the upstream emissions influenced by procurement, account for over 90% of their carbon footprint. Yet, many struggle to secure investment for supply chain decarbonisation despite its significant benefits.
Without a compelling business case, leadership may see Scope 3 emissions reduction as a cost rather than a value driver, leading to stalled progress, compliance risks, and missed competitive advantages.
This guide shows you how to drive company-wide buy-in for your decarbonisation strategy, build a winning business case, get strategic alignment, and be well prepared for the inevitable “what about the cost?” question.
TLDR?
It’s all about connecting sustainability to financial, regulatory, and competitive drivers—and doing so is not as difficult as you might think.
