This chapter examines corporate climate commitments, ESG disclosure frameworks, and supply-chain decarbonization in logistics. It traces the shift from CSR to science-based and net-zero targets, critiques the difficulty of tackling Scope 3 …

Cowell, Jan

Financial institutions lack physical supply chains, leaving Scope 3 Category 1 (purchased goods and services) among the least consistently reported categories despite dominating sector emissions. Through a BNY case study, the paper benchmar…

This study builds an integrated model of norm activation and protection motivation theories to explain airline passengers' low uptake of voluntary carbon offset programs (VCOPs). Using 315 samples and PLS-SEM, it finds that awareness of CO2…

Toth, Alessandro, Janssens, Diego, Lehmann, Elena

Combining multi-regional input-output analysis with facility-level data, this study quantifies Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions across manufacturing supply-chain tiers. It finds substantial emissions leakage to lower-regulation jurisdictions and…

Gibson, Hunter

A technical note on SEC Scope 3 disclosure audit practice, proposing that escalation to the audit committee be triggered only when the propagated uncertainty interval around the disclosed Scope 3 figure exceeds the company's documented mate…

Lan Thi Ngoc Nguyen, T. Doan

Using World Bank Enterprise Survey data on 12,154 establishments in 37 countries, this study links external energy audits to reported supply-chain carbon monitoring. Audited establishments show an 8.1 percentage-point higher monitoring prob…

This study examines managing Scope 3 GHG emissions through an ecosystem lens, using evidence from the manufacturing sector. It argues that value-chain-wide collaboration, not firm-level action alone, is essential for Scope 3 reduction. Find…

Adebola Adeyemi, Simeng Wang, Natalia Katolik +1

Analyzes the French duty of vigilance ruling against TotalEnergies, where the court held climate risk falls within the law and faulted the plan for omitting Scope 3 emissions from product combustion. It recognized company influence via inve…

Siveter R.

A study examining indirect Scope 3 greenhouse gas emissions in the oil and gas sector. No abstract is available, so the specific methods and findings cannot be assessed from this record. It sits within the Scope 3 accounting and disclosure …

Suhani Patni, Steven Y. Chao, Amber Chen-Goodspeed +4

This review examines the carbon footprint of robot-assisted surgery across its full lifecycle, including manufacturing, supply chains, anesthesia, and waste. Reported emissions vary widely by procedure, setting, instrument reuse, and lifecy…

Hyunwoo H. Lee, Kee Kyung Kang, Gilzae Lee +1

This study examines how agricultural carbon reduction outcomes can be institutionally linked to corporate ESG disclosure, drawing on domestic and international case analysis. It argues for clearly distinguishing supply-chain insetting from …
