Webinar 22 May: Measuring and reporting beyond your direct emissions

While businesses are accustomed to reporting their own direct emissions, there is broad discretion about which indirect emissions should be included in a business carbon footprint. This webinar will provide examples of reporting on indirect emissions from sources that are not directly controlled by a business (Scope 3) including reporting carbon emissions of waste, recycling, transport and processing. Register here!

BITC's environment campaign's goal is for every business to recognise and improve their overall impact on the environment and for their operations and behaviours to be sustainable.

The campaign runs The Prince's Mayday Network supporting businesses on the journey to environmental sustainability and ways2work inspiring better ways of working and travelling.
