As global climate concerns escalate, governments are introducing stricter greenhouse gas (GHG) regulations to reduce carbon emissions and promote sustainability. To promote compliance and maintain a competitive edge, your company can take steps to meet these evolving regulations proactively.
Start by identifying and measuring your company's Scope 1 (direct), Scope 2 (indirect energy) and Scope 3 (supply chain) emissions. Tools like Microsoft Sustainability Manager can help automate and streamline this process.
Enable accurate and comprehensive data collection across your operations, facilities and supply chain. The Microsoft Sustainability data solution built on Microsoft Fabric can act as your company’s comprehensive ESG data estate.
Based on your emissions assessment, establish clear GHG reduction targets that align with international goals. Integrate these targets into your broader business strategy to prioritize them at all levels.
Develop a robust ESG reporting framework that is compliant with upcoming GHG regulations. Provide transparency in your disclosures and communicate your sustainability progress to stakeholders.
