*Please note that this report only includes an Excel data file if this is indicated in "What's included" below
Report summary
In this two-part series of insights, we assess metals and mining companies' scope 3 emissions reduction progress. The first insight presented the strategies being adopted by major mining companies to address scope 3 emissions. Part 2 focuses on how companies can select the optimal strategies for their product mix to broaden ambition for scope 3 reduction. We address the key strategic questions facing mining companies in tackling scope 3: • How can companies assess the risk and reward associated with scope 3 emissions reduction? • What technical and collaborative barriers do companies need to overcome to address value chain emissions? • Which scope 3 strategy is most appropriate for different mined commodities and over what timeline? Read the full insight to unearth tangible strategies for reaching a net-zero supply chain in metals and mining.
