The Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Protocol defines three scopes for classification of GHG emissions. Scope 1 emissions are direct emissions from an orga- nizations operations (e.g. boilers, furnaces). Scope 2 emissions are indirectthose resulting from purchased electricity, heat, and steam. Scope 3 emissions are also indirectthose resulting from the organizations activities, but not owned by the organizationfor example emissions generated by third party production of component materials, as well as third-party logistics. Addressing Scope 3 logistics emissions is challenging, especially for large organizations with complex dis- tribution systems, because it requires collecting information from (multiple) third parties, often operating with different IT systems and varying levels of sophistication. Let p denote the true (population) proportion of organizations that have identified Scope 3 logistics GHG reduction goals. In a benchmarking survey of 72 organizations, eight said they are actively working on Scope 3 logistics.
