Against the backdrop of #COP29, Stuart explores how businesses - from the energy industry to brands across all sectors - can respond to changing regulations, leverage data, map out complex supply chains, and also consider social impacts of climate action to help achieve a ‘just transition’.

With #COP29 placing decarbonisation in the global spotlight, addressing Scope 3 emissions is a valuable way for companies to contribute to 2050 climate targets. These emissions, often the largest share of a company’s carbon footprint, remain under-addressed, with less than 15% of businesses having set meaningful reduction targets. (Source: CDP) This is more than a compliance challenge - it’s a chance to innovate, drive efficiency and build resilience. In our latest COP29 insight, #LRQA's Alexandra Sauer, Director, and Thomas Zumbühl, Associate Director, for our European Advisory team, explore how businesses should prioritise robust data collection, supplier engagement and alignment with evolving regulations to lead in a decarbonising economy.
