GHG emissions (scope 3)

Methodology:

SDPI - Sustainable Development Performance Indicators

Goal:

To disclose for the last 5 years whether efforts are taken by an organization to require others in its supply chain to measure their own scopes 1 and 2 GHG emissions (i.e., the organization’s scope 3 emissions).

GHG scope 3 emissions measure gases contributing to global warming that are emitted into the Earth’s atmosphere from sources in the organization’s value chain that are not directly owned or controlled by the organization. This indicator calls for disclosure of whether efforts are taken to measure scope 3 GHG emissions, as well as to require others in the organization’s supply chain to themselves measure scope 1 and scope 2 GHG emissions.

Hazardous waste treatment

Methodology:

SDPI - Sustainable Development Performance Indicators

Goal:

To disclose for the last 5 years to gauge the degree of progress.

Refers to the total amount of hazardous waste, in absolute terms, as well as to the proportion of hazardous waste treated, given total waste reported by the reporting entity. Hazardous waste can be classified according to the Basel Convention on the Control of Transboundary Movements of Hazardous Wastes and their Disposal (Basel Convention).
