A) First, read the article Emissions Measurement in Supply Chains ( link:https://www3.weforum.org/docs/WEF_Emissions_Measurement_in_Supply_Chains_2023.pdf) , a report on the realities and challenges for businesses to measure their emission. Make sure you understand the 3 scopes of emission as defined in the report.

1. Summarize the 3 scopes of emission. You should pick a industry you like and give an example that will help others understand what are the 3 scopes.
2. Which scope is the most challenging to measure and what are some of the challenges in measuring emissions? Provide 1 or 2 examples from the report.

B) In this discussion, we will explore examples of products and services that are exceptionally well designed for manufacturing and operations. Participants are encouraged to share their observations and explain why these designs excel in operational efficiency. By analyzing these examples, we aim to uncover key principles and best practices in design that contribute to operational excellence.

Question: Have you seen some products/services that are well designed for manufacturing and/or operations? Let us know why you think they are well designed for operations.

C) In this discussion, we will delve into the challenges of managing resources, such as components and supplies, to ensure the right items are available at the right time. Participants are invited to share their experiences with resource management and reflect on insights gained from our resource management chapter.

Question: Managing resources, such as components and supplies, and make sure you have the right items at the right time, can be challenging. Have you ever managed resources before, what did you learn from our resource management chapter?
