Scope 1 emissions are direct emissions from sources owned or controlled by your company, such as company vehicles or boilers.

Scope 2 covers indirect emissions from purchased energy, like electricity.

Scope 3 includes other indirect emissions across your value chain, such as emissions from purchased goods, waste, and logistics.
