Description
The majority of an organisation’s climate impact lies outside its direct operations – embedded in supply chains, travel and everyday purchases. These Scope 3 emissions represent both a significant challenge and an important opportunity for meaningful climate action.
In this one-hour online session, we will:
- introduce Scope 3 emissions and why they matter for organisations
- share insights from UWE Bristol’s own carbon footprint, with a focus on Scope 3
- connect this understanding to how climate action will reshape industries and the world of work.
This session is open to both students and staff. It offers a chance to deepen your understanding of institutional climate impact and how we are using university spend to drive climate action.
