He expects the CDP to push for increasingly granular emissions tracking over time. This will inevitably drive more detailed reporting by the growing number of reporting companies and eventually their supply chain partners too (as I’ve noted here).

The challenge of getting meaningful data on Scope 3 emissions when companies frequently have networks of hundreds, or sometimes thousands or tens of thousands of suppliers remains significant. This point was reiterated in many comments made at a recent Greening the Supply Chain conference I attended in Boston. However, the potential is tremendous.
