    As businesses and public organizations strive to implement the principles of sustainable procurement, understanding your company's carbon emissions is essential, and indirect emissions, i.e., those coming from the supply chain are a key part of that. In fact, as Julia Salant, General Manager for the carbon solution at EcoVadis, explains, Scope 3 emissions constitute a vast chunk of all carbon emissions and as such should be a priority for businesses.
