This third video in the Meat Institute Sustainability Committee’s Scope 3 series explains the Hybrid Methodology — another option for calculating emissions for Purchased Goods and Services.

SCS Engineers breaks down what we're calling Hybrid Method A & Hybrid Method B which uses supplier-specific Scope 1, 2, and 3 data reported by revenue, and supplier data with standard EPA EEIO emission factors when supplier data isn’t available.

Learn when a hybrid approach makes sense, its pros and cons, and why it’s important to keep detailed ledger accounts with vendor names and spend amounts. This video also covers how this method can support — or conflict with — your company’s targets. In this video is a decision tree to help you choose the best calculation method for your purchases.
