It's also known under the names carbon accounting- and greenhouse gas reporting. Chapter 2 ## What needs to be reported The Greenhouse Gas (GHG) protocal categorizes emissions into three scopes: Scope 1, 2, and 3.  ### Scope 1: Direct emissions Scope 1 encompasses direct emissions from sources that are owned or controlled by the organization, such as fuel combustion in company-owned vehicles or facilities. ### **Scope 2: Electricity indirect emissions** Scope 2 covers indirect emissions associated with the generation of purchased electricity, steam, heating, or cooling consumed by the organization. ### **Scope 3: Other indirect emissions** Scope 3 extends beyond the boundaries of the organization to include all other indirect emissions resulting from activities across its value chain, such as those from suppliers, transport and production. ![Scopes](https://www.mastersustainability.today/hs-fs/hubfs/Scopes.png?width=2000&name=Scopes.png) [ Download brochure ](https://www.mastersustainability.today/carbon-accounting-software?hsLang=en#download-infographic) [ Speak with an expert ](https://www.mastersustainability.today/demo?hsLang=en) Chapter 3 ## Carbon emission reporting regulations To ensure comparability, credibility, and consistency in carbon reporting, organizations increasingly align their disclosures with globally recognized frameworks and standards. These frameworks establish a common language for carbon reporting across industries and regions. ### **Widely used reporting standards and frameworks** ##### GHG Protocol (Greenhouse Gas protocol): A globally recognized standard for measuring and managing greenhouse gas emissions. - Scope: Covers scope 1, scope 2 and scope 3. ##### CDP (Carbon Disclosure Project): An international nonprofit organization that provides an environmental impact disclosure system. - Scope: Collects data on climate change, deforestation, water security, and plastic use. ##### TCFD (Task Force Climate  Financial Disclosures): An organization that develops recommendations for climate-related financial disclosures. - Scope: Focuses on governance-, strategy-, risk management-, and risk related targets. ##### SBTi (Science Based Targets initiative): An initiative that provides guidance for science-based emission reduction targets. - Scope: Covers greenhouse gas emissions reduction targets for companies.   Chapter 4 ## A digital carbon accounting solution The MasterSustainability.today platform offers seamless end-to-end management of carbon emissions.
