Abstract

Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) enhances Scope 3 emissions reporting by systematically evaluating environmental impacts across a product's life cycle. Scope 3 emissions, encompassing indirect greenhouse gas emissions from supply chains, often represent the largest share of an organization’s carbon footprint. Accurate measurement and reporting are essential for sustainability initiatives, yet challenges arise due to data variability, boundary-setting complexities, and lack of standardized methodologies. LCA mitigates these issues by identifying emission hotspots, improving transparency, and fostering strategic decision-making. By integrating LCA, organizations can optimize resource utilization, engage stakeholders, and enhance accountability, aligning with broader climate goals for a sustainable future.
