Most emissions are hidden upstream in complex supply chains.
While direct emissions are often well understood, a much larger share of environmental impact remains hidden across complex, global value chains.
Incomplete, inconsistent, and non-comparable data makes it difficult to identify hotspots, benchmark suppliers, and make well-founded climate decisions.
Generic datasets often obscure meaningful differences across suppliers, sourcing regions, and production pathways — limiting visibility into where the most relevant reduction opportunities actually lie.
