This paper presents ICEC, a prototype system for monitoring and reporting department-level Scope 3 emissions in higher education institutions. It converts user-uploaded consumption data (electricity, diesel, LPG, water, waste) to CO2e using…

von Rosing M.

This material explains practical steps for companies to classify GHG emissions into Scope 1, 2, and 3, set reduction targets, and implement measures. It focuses on concrete reduction actions and implementation approaches to support corporat…

Boduen Wang

This paper proposes a novel accounting framework that links Scope 3 inventory reductions to actual emissions consequences, incorporating reachability and evidence constraints. It aims for more realistic and verifiable emissions reduction as…

This dataset provides province- and sector-level estimates of domestic production-based Scope 1 CO2 embodied in China's exports of digital-economy core industries for 2012-2016, 2019, and 2020. It includes interprovincial carbon flows, tran…

Adebukunola, Ademayowa M

The REMI Protocol proposes an independent, standard-native verification layer for circular action, targeting people, communities, and SMEs not covered by enterprise frameworks. A verified circular action is captured once and expressed as a …

Brans E.

This paper examines the legal liability of non-state actors (e.g., corporations) for Scope 3 emissions. It analyzes the extent of corporate responsibility for supply chain emissions in light of climate litigation and regulatory developments…

Testini L.

This paper assesses corporate carbon footprint and Scope 3 emissions in stainless steel electric arc furnace (EAF) steelmaking, aiming to tackle climate change. By quantifying supply-chain-wide emissions, it identifies specific reduction op…

This paper develops a methodology for livestock companies to dual-report GWP* and GWP100 in their GHG inventories, addressing the limitations of GWP100 for short-lived climate pollutants. The 'shadow company' technique enables GWP* calculat…

Nerine Botma, Susanna L. Middelberg

This study evaluates GHG disclosure by six JSE-listed food producers using a GRI 305-based coding index. Most companies disclosed Scope 1 and location-based Scope 2 emissions, but Scope 3 disclosure was minimal and key methodological detail…

This study develops an integrated strategic framework for guiding Thai universities toward net-zero, using Khon Kaen University as a case. Combining literature review, gap analysis, emissions clustering, and design-factor synthesis aligned …

Cowell, Jan

This paper examines Scope 3 Category 1 (Purchased Goods and Services) emissions management in financial institutions, using BNY as a case study. It finds fragmented disclosure and argues that the hybrid calculation method offers the best ba…
