AGENDA

• Climate change and Fashion Industry

• GHG Inventory and calculation methodology.

• Prepare your greenhouse gas inventory report with Scope 3 calculation included.

• The report should also be aligned with GHG Protocol which is also required by SBTi.

• Decarbonization roadmap.

• SBTi Protocol and Submitting documents to SBTi.

Climate change and GHG
❑People, ecosystem and wildlife- the entire planet will be affected by global warming;
Caused by the emission of GHG
❑Day by day temperature is increasing due to the burning of huge amounts of non-
renewable energy in every moment and emitting GHGs which trap the sunlight and
increase temperature.

Fashion Industry and Emission

Transportation Operation Purchased energy

❑ Fashion Industry growth will be 81% until 2030

❑ Global apparels and footwear industries contributes 8 percent of
total GHG emission;

Contribution of Fashion industry is Significant and its going to increase

Carbon Footprint
• A carbon footprint (or greenhouse gas footprint) is
a calculated value or index that makes it possible
to compare the total amount of greenhouse
gases (GHGs) that an activity, product, company,
or country adds to the atmosphere.
• Carbon footprints are usually reported in tonnes of
emissions CO2-equivalent per unit of comparison
covering carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4),
nitrous oxide (N2O), and hydrofluorocarbons
(HFCs).

Life Cycle Assessment (LCA)
• LCA is a systematic analysis of the environmental impact
of a product, material, process, or activity over the entire
life cycle.
• From raw material extraction and processing (cradle),
product's manufacturing, distribution and use, recycling or
final disposal of the materials composing it (grave).
• LCA is not limited to assess the carbon emissions, and it
can be broaden to the other impacts such as ozone
depletion, eutrophication, acidification, human toxicity,
ecotoxicity, photochemical ozone formation, land use,
and resource depletion.

GHGs & SBT

The Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) is a global body enabling businesses and financial
institutions to set ambitious emissions reductions targets in line with climate science. It is
focused on accelerating companies across the world to halve emissions before 2030 and achieve
net-zero emissions before 2050.

GHG Inventory and Calculation methodology

GSCS International Ltd. ©

Terms and Definition

• Greenhouse gas (GHG): Gaseous constituent of the atmosphere, both natural

and anthropogenic, that absorbs and emit radiation ar specific wavelengths

within the spectrum of infrared radiation emitted by the earths’ surface, the

atmosphere and clouds.

• GHG Source: process that release a GHG into the atmosphere.

• GHG Sink: Process that removes a GHG from the atmosphere.

• GHG reservoir: Competent, other than the atmosphere, that has the capacity

to accumulate GHGs and to store and release them.

GSCS International Ltd. ©

Terms and Definition (Cont.)

• GHG Emission: release of GHG into the atmosphere.

• GHG removal: Withdrawal of GHG from the atmosphere by GHG sinks.

• GSG Emission factor: Coefficient relating GHG activity with the emission

• GHG Inventory
➢ Greenhouse gas inventory are emission inventory of GHG emissions that are
developed for a variety of reasons. GHG inventory is prepared based on
three scopes and exposed in tons in equivalent of Carbon dioxide (tons
CO2e) according to GHG protocol.
➢ The three scopes (scope 1, scope 2, scope 3) are a way of categorizing the
different kinds of emissions a company creates in its own operations and in
its wider ‘value chain’ (its suppliers and customers).

Direct GHG Emissions and Removals

The organization shall quantify (in tonnes of CO2) direct GHG Emissions separately for:

• CO2

• CH4

• N 2O

• NF3

• SF6 and

• Other appropriate GHG groups (HFCs, PFCs, etc.)

GSCS International Ltd. ©

IN-Direct GHG Emissions
The organization
• Shall apply and document a process to determine which indirect emissions to include
in its GHG inventory.
• Shall define and explain its own pre-determined criteria for the significance of indirect
emissions, considering the intended use of the GHG inventory.
• Should not use criteria to exclude substantial quantities of indirect emissions or evade
compliance obligations.
• Shall identify and evaluate its indirect GHG emissions, to select the significant ones by
using those criteria.
• Shall quantify and report these significant emissions.
• Justify any Exclusions of significant indirect emissions

GHG Protocol

Scope 1: Direct GHG emissions occur from

sources that are owned or controlled by the
company. Occurs from sources that are
controlled or owned by an organization
Scope 2: Indirect GHG emissions from the
generation of purchased electricity and
from imported energy consumed by the
company.
Scope 3: Other indirect GHG Emissions: that
are a consequence of the activities of the
company from sources not owned or
controlled by the company
