Scope 3 Emissions and the Semiconductor Supply Chain
The semiconductor industry sets ambitious targets for environmental sustainability, but how can it achieve the elusive Net Zero goal? As chip manufacturers attempt to understand how supplier emissions contribute to their environmental footprint, industry alignment on emissions reporting across the value chain is essential to gauge the scope of the challenge. This webinar will address the impact of Scope 3 emissions accounting for the semiconductor industry on the supply chain. How can companies predict and prepare for future regulations on Scope 3 emissions? And how can the supply chain for semiconductor manufacturing turn this challenge into an opportunity?
