Overview

The latest IWFM Sustainability Survey highlighted a gap within organisations in developing their whole life greenhouse gas emissions inventory, including supplier and capital goods impacts. For most FMs, this will amount to 90% of the total emissions, so it is important to measure correctly and accurately.

As part of the SFMI’s (Sustainable Facilities Management Index) Scope 3 research, supported by IWFM, hear from Optima and Bouygues about the lessons learnt in developing their Scope 3 inventories, tools that have been used, and how the data is being used.

Your panel for this episode:

Sunil Shah (host): IWFM Sustainability SIG member; Managing Director, Acclaro Advisory
Lewis Chenery: Head of Environment & Sustainability, Bouygues Energies & Services
