Aligning and Integrating Corporate Nature, Water and Carbon Impacts

Major food companies globally are squaring up to the reality of their Scope 3 or supply chain climate change commitments. For these companies to quantify – and therefore reduce – their emissions from suppliers, they typically need to work with thousands of small producers in complex and highly fragmented supply chains.

This is where MMRV – measurement, monitoring, reporting and verification – comes in. MMRV systems and platforms which meet common global accounting and reporting standards, can serve companies to help track the success of interventions and investments they make and meet public commitments.

In a May 17 webinar, ESMC’s Executive Director Debbie Reed will be joined by Jay Watson, Regenerative Agriculture Director from General Mills (and ESMC Board member), along with Mark Eastham, Sustainable Products Lead, Ahold Delhaize USA, to discuss the future of MMRV and Scope 3 interventions in agriculture – especially around including impacts such as biodiversity and water in addition to carbon. The panelists will discuss learnings from the past five years in driving CPG/Retail programs and will propose solutions to reduce the complexity of data gathering and processing and bring more actors to the table.
