DitchCarbon

Since launching our program in 2025, our team has generated approximately 285,000 product carbon footprint (PCF) values. Having addressed the first challenge—generating PCFs at scale with a system-level methodology validated against ISO 14067, PACT, and the GHG Protocol Product Standard—we turned our attention to the next: How do we make this data accessible to customers at scale? Over the past year, our team has been working with several providers to tackle this challenge. Today, I’m pleased to share an important milestone: PCFs for more than 100,000 of our products are now available to customers through the DitchCarbon platform. Our work doesn’t stop there. We continue to identify harmonized, scalable approaches for making environmental data available to customers. A critical part of scaling this ecosystem is reducing unnecessary administrative burden for data providers and suppliers. For this reason, we are currently unable to support platforms that do not offer bulk PCF upload capabilities at no cost to suppliers.

Bet you can't guess which country has the most Science Based Targets initiative companies ....

Stop focusing on your largest emitters... Just because a supplier emits more doesn’t mean they’re the problem. Many are already on track with science-based targets and full disclosure. The real risk? Suppliers with vague goals, poor data, and no clear plan. You can’t change past emissions. But you can choose who you work with by 2030.

Too many sustainability goals are set with ambition, not evidence. Optimism is good… but setting targets you can’t deliver only undermines your credibility. Before setting Scope 3 targets, understand your suppliers’ real reduction plans. Who’s aligned? Who’s stalling? Who’s going to hold you back? Set goals based on data, not assumptions.

Using CDP, Ecovadis? You are missing out… … by a lot, actually. For example. We recently onboarded a Fortune 100 company and got 50% data coverage with primary emissions data—all within a week of signing up! Let us show you how!

Industry averages are not your friends... here's why. You could be over (or under) by hundreds of tonnes...enough to derail your entire decarbonisation strategy. The good news...you don’t need to bombard suppliers with forms or guesswork to spot these discrepancies. Unlocking real supplier-level data is simpler than you think. 🌱
