🥳 ​🎂 𝟔 𝐲𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐬 𝐨𝐟 ClimateChoice 🎂 🎉

Yes, it is our birthday. ClimateChoice becomes 6!
A moment to reflect: From early-stage startup to “serious business”?

What happened over time: We made a lot of mistakes. Learned fast. Kept building - together with our customers, partners, team.
And a lot has changed in that time, especially in Scope 3.

Here the fast-forward Scope 3 Action journey.

👉 2020: Only a few hundred companies globally had real climate targets.
“Carbon neutral” was often a label, rarely backed by actual reduction.
👉 Today: Scope 3 has moved to the center. Not just reporting wise, but especially when it comes to executing science-based targets.
👉 What we’re seeing now: Companies actively work with their suppliers
👉 What’s new: Scope 3 is becoming operational, not just a measurement
- Primary data starting to replace estimates
- CPOs & CSOs are moving from pilots → to scaling supplier engagement
- Scope 3 Action leaders are building intelligent Scope 3 data systems for smart procurement decisions.

What we’ve built along the way:

Our Climate Intelligence Platform has evolved with our customers —
CSOs who need to report & CPOs who need to steer — across global supply chains in 150+ countries. This way, today we help companies:
- track and benchmark thousands of suppliers, visible with Climate Risk Scores
- provide audit-ready emissions, targets, and climate action data at scale
- turn Scope 3 data into real procurement decisions

6 years in. What a journey! What’s next?

🚀 Now it’s about scaling.
If you’re owning „this topic“ in your company and want to go deeper: Join our Scope 3 Action Group to build up your robust Supplier Climate Data Layer, kickstart your smart Scope 3 steering system with our Enterprise Licence and meet us at 📍 10–11 June in Berlin (ClimateSummit.de).

- ready to kickoff in 2 months!! A big thank you to all amazing speakers, partners and workshop hosts — shaping the agenda, insights & Scope 3 Action best practices of today.

What started in 2020 still holds true: decision-ready supplier data builds the foundation for procurement to drive risk reduction & decarbonization.

In 2026, it’s about turning data into scalable decisions with impact,
We are looking forward to bringing together 100 leading CPOs, CSOs and practitioners in Berlin, June, 10-11.

Let’s make Scope 3 action our business!

Kicking Off Scope 3 Action 🙌

Strategy Days 2026, some of us in person, others remote.

We kicked off the year by going back to the fundamentals: why do we do what we do and how we work together.

Last week our team event was all about values alignment — turning shared principles into everyday behaviors. Through open workshops and honest discussions, we aligned on team ways of working, ownership, and what “good collaboration” really looks like as we grow.

We created space to connect the dots, align on priorities, and make sure our actions reflect what we stand for.

No shortcuts. 
Shared direction to start the year right.

Here’s to building with intention in 2026✨

𝐈𝐭’𝐬 𝐚 𝐰𝐫𝐚𝐩, 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟓! 🎧🌍 We couldn’t resist… ClimateCrisis Wrapped is here.

Inspired by all the clever ‚2025 Wrapped‘ posts popping up — here’s a quick take on a year in clime, a year that felt like forward, backward… and forward again.

2025 was a year of contradictions.

⬆️ Higher global CO₂ concentration than ever
⬇️ Political backsliding in the EU, a regulation rollercoaster
➡️ Still no final COP text on a fast fossil phase-out

The result.

⛽ Fossil fuels still expanding
🌬️ Renewables the cheapest solution, but buildout far too slow

But also — and this matters — real momentum from many companies!
And individuals driving collaboration, decarbonization and in the end driving towards future-proofed businesses.

Across our ClimateChoice Community & Scope 3 Action Group, we saw powerful outcomes.

✨ Thousands of suppliers engaged on decarbonization
✨ Endless products, documents & climate data points analyzed
✨ Teams operationalizing their climate targets in procurement processes

Supplier by supplier, data point by data point — Scope 3 Action is real.

Thank you to everyone choosing transparency, collaboration, and smarter ClimateChoices in 2025 💚

Let’s make 2026 the year where we accelerate action, smart business cases and overall: collaboration!

„𝗦𝗶𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗶𝗰𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗶𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘂𝗹𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝘀𝗼𝗽𝗵𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻.“ 
- Leonardo da Vinci. At the , Lara Obst shared simple truth about Scope 3:

𝗜𝗳 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗱𝗼𝗻’𝘁 𝗲𝗻𝗴𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝘀𝘂𝗽𝗽𝗹𝗶𝗲𝗿𝘀, 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗰𝗮𝗻𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗱𝗲𝗰𝗮𝗿𝗯𝗼𝗻𝗶𝘇𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝘀𝘂𝗽𝗽𝗹𝘆 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗶𝗻.

Here’s why engaging suppliers now is critical:

🔥Waiting for complete, perfectly accurate data to start acting is the real risk. Start where you stand.

💬 Primary data quality only improves after you start working with suppliers.

📄✂️📝 Baselines will shift — because they should. New data reveals the real picture. Re-baselining isn’t failure; it’s evidence the process is working.

✅ Suppliers often know what to do — climate just wasn’t a business priority until a major customer asked.

🗣️ Engagement is what triggers change on the ground, not spreadsheets. Research shows that companies who actively work with suppliers are 9x more likely to hit their Scope 3 targets. Not because their data is perfect — but because collaboration creates momentum.

Instead of overcomplicating the “perfect” methodology — especially amid policy changes around COP30 — 𝗹𝗲𝘁’𝘀 𝘂𝘀𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘁𝗼𝗼𝗹𝘀 𝘄𝗲 𝗮𝗹𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗱𝘆 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗿𝘁 𝗺𝗼𝘃𝗶𝗻𝗴.

Scope 3 isn’t just a compliance exercise. It’s a system change. And system change starts with engagement, not perfection.

Scope 3 audits are coming – are you ready?

Scope 3 audits are complex – mistakes can creep in quickly, costing time, effort, and potentially affecting your reputation.

Together with a global auditing firm and new Scope 3 Action Group partner, last week marked the start of 𝗠𝗮𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗰𝗹𝗮𝘀𝘀 𝗼𝗻 𝗺𝗮𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗦𝗰𝗼𝗽𝗲 𝟯 𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗰𝘂𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 𝗮𝘂𝗱𝗶𝘁-𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗱𝘆, 𝗳𝗼𝗰𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗼𝗻 𝘀𝘂𝗽𝗽𝗹𝗶𝗲𝗿-𝘀𝗽𝗲𝗰𝗶𝗳𝗶𝗰 𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗮:

💚 Very 𝐠𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐟𝐮𝐥 our founder Lara hosted the 𝐌𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐜𝐥𝐚𝐬𝐬 „𝐃𝐞𝐦𝐲𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐟𝐲 𝐒𝐜𝐨𝐩𝐞 𝟑“ at !

Yesterday, she had the true pleasure of joining the inspiring FairDay 2025 in Karlsruhe – an outstanding event organized by Alice Knorz & Team that brings together thought leaders and practitioners who create real value along the whole supply chain – far beyond sustainability reporting.

Very impressive journeys, for example shared by, Rosalie Dorn Rui Duarte Ramalheiro Anette Dierks Stephan Grabmeier!!

In her Masterclass on “Demystifying Scope 3 Action”, she explored this point further and went deep into how companies can turn decarbonization ambition into very practical implementation - together with the procurement team.

These three biggest levers were discovered & discussed:

✅ 𝐄𝐧𝐠𝐚𝐠𝐞 𝐬𝐮𝐩𝐩𝐥𝐢𝐞𝐫𝐬 - in meaningful collaboration
✅ 𝐂𝐨𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐜𝐭 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐥𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐠𝐞 𝐝𝐚𝐭𝐚 - for transparency & baselining
✅ 𝐁𝐮𝐢𝐥𝐝 𝐚 𝐟𝐮𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞-𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐨𝐟 𝐛𝐮𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐜𝐚𝐬𝐞 - especially for Scope 3 for decarbonization

It’s these real actions that move us from reporting to transformation, and they’re already happening across industries! That’s what we witnessed together at and what we experience in our daily work at ClimateChoice.
