… transport, purchased goods and services). Figure 2 illustrates the key sources of carbon emissions from council activities and identifies their associated scope. Scope 3 emissions are typically more complex and fragmented to account for, and the required data often lies with other organisations. As a result, there is a higher degree of estimation for scope 3 categories. 4 https…
