Carbon reporting, explained for exporters

Almost every request is a request about one or more of the three scopes. Scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions explained covers all three together and is the right place to begin.

For single definitions, the glossary has Scope 1, Scope 2 and Scope 3 separately.

A CBAM report if your goods cross the EU border. A supplier questionnaire if a corporate customer asked. A GHG baseline if a bank attached one to a green credit line. Or the EU's voluntary VSME standard, if a customer asks for it by name.

• Scope 3 categories — all fifteen GHG Protocol categories, with examples.
• How to calculate Scope 2 emissions — the formula, and location-based against market-based.
• VSME explained — the EU voluntary standard for SME sustainability data.
• Answering an emissions data request — what a bank, a buyer and a CBAM importer each expect.
