This paper examines how Scope 3 emissions disclosure affects supply chain decarbonization. It empirically analyzes the link between corporate disclosure practices and emissions reduction efforts across the supply chain, with implications fo…

Suzanne Greene, Alexis Bateman

This chapter argues that transparency in GHG accounting and annual public disclosure are essential for managing supply chain decarbonization toward 2050 goals. It reviews levers such as standards, data collection, information sharing, and v…

This paper examines the rationale and mechanisms for allocating responsibility for greenhouse gas emissions across supply chains. It addresses how Scope 3 accounting and reporting practices, along with policy implications, should assign acc…

Paul J. Burke

This comment on Arimura & Sugino (2024) re-examines Asia-Pacific energy markets after Russia's invasion of Ukraine, showing Russia's share of regional fossil fuel supply remains small (oil 10%, coal 3%, natural gas 2%). It argues climate am…
