Buyer-Supplier Engagement: Tools and Resources for Climate Action in Your Supply Chain

Wednesday, January 12, 2022 / Webinar

Reducing supply chain emissions is critical to businesses’ achievement of net-zero goals, yet helping suppliers take climate action is a challenging task. What are the most effective ways to engage with suppliers? What tools are available to support their efforts? What does the focus on reducing Scope 3 emissions mean for your procurement?

BSR and its partners have created a suite of open-source tools and resources that you can utilize in your business to drive climate action in your supply chain.

• 1.5°C Supplier Engagement Guide. Launched with the 1.5°C Supply Chain Leaders, the guide provides practical guidance for 1.5°C-aligned targets and action throughout global supply chains with a specific focus on engaging with suppliers to halve GHG emissions before 2030. 
• "Buyer-Supplier Engagement to Reduce Upstream Scope 3 Emissions" Transformation Guide. Created by Transform to Net Zero, this Transformation Guide shares leading-edge approaches from Microsoft, Nike, and Unilever to answer the questions:
  • How should companies prioritize suppliers for scope 3 engagement?
  • What incentives can companies provide to a supplier to decarbonize?
  • How can companies address emissions several tiers up the supply chain?
  • How can companies enable suppliers to measure and report carbon reductions?
• Climate Fit: Net Zero Training for SMEs. Climate Fit is a free online training course to help SMEs reduce their carbon emissions and join the collective race to net zero. Developed in partnership with the University of Cambridge Institute for Sustainability Leadership (CISL) and We Mean Business (WMB) Coalition and hosted through the SME Climate Hub, it aims to equip SMEs with expert knowledge and practical skills to take action on climate change. Delivered over seven modules, Climate Fit guides SMEs through the decarbonization journey step by step.

Please join us to learn more about these resources and how they can support your action toward net zero.
