Many are still reeling from the SBTi Board of Trustees statement last week saying that they would include a proposal to extend the use of Environmental Attribute Certificates (EACs) within Scope 3 targets. While we wait for further guidance from SBTi, here is what we know and don't know: What We Know: 🌱 SBTi will produce a draft update to its "flagship" Corporate Net Zero Standard by July 2024 and establish "rules, thresholds, and guardrails" regarding the use of certificates in Scope 3, if it does move in this direction. 🌱 SBTi expanding the use of EACs and instruments in Scope 3 would represent a significant change of course. 🌱 SBTi itself will not validate carbon credit quality. What We Don't Know Yet: ❗ What might be the full range of certificates and instruments that SBTi will permit to be used in Scope 3? ❗ To what extent will certificates and instruments be permitted to meet Scope 3 reduction targets? ❗ Will SBTi limit the use of instruments to only those generated within a value chain (so-called "insets") or more broadly allow instruments to be used against targets even if generated outside a value chain (an "offset")? ❗ How can interested companies engage SBTi as it finalizes changes to the Corporate Net-Zero Standard? Green Strategies has published further discussion on this announcement on our website. You can read more here: https://lnkd.in/eZpvRGS5

Issues around Scope 3 have appropriately gotten a lot of attention lately. Roger’s paper helps shine light on problems with Scope 3 accounting and how we might make it better -- for companies and the climate. We recommend giving it a read!
Calling all Scope 3 "fans"! I'm very pleased that my latest peer-reviewed paper on greenhouse gas accounting has gone live. While my last paper, published by Oxford press, (see earlier post) covered the broader landscape of how GHG accounting rules and the rules of key leadership programs like SBTi are actually undercutting the contributions that the private sector might otherwise make to mitigating climate change, this paper goes deeper into Scope 3 accounting and its treatment by leadership programs. Bottom line -- anyone who cares deeply about climate change should be very dissatisfied with the status quo. It is true that this week SBTi seemed to indicate it is moving in a more positive direction (inching toward the type of recommendations from my last paper and this one), but change is not happening fast enough. Hope folks will take a look. https://lnkd.in/eWibkeMb
