Talking GHG: Determining operational boundaries

  • サマリー

  • Did you enjoy this episode? Text us your thoughts and be sure to include the episode name.

    In the third episode of our miniseries on the building blocks of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reporting, we discuss step 3: determine operational boundaries. Host Heather Horn is joined again by Marcin Olewinski, an Assurance partner, and Kelsey Pizza, a senior manager in PwC’s National Office, who illustrate the importance of correctly identifying operational boundaries and the impact on the accuracy of GHG reporting. They also discuss how it’s a critical step to helping organizations clearly define and understand the scope of their emissions.

    Because different frameworks may prescribe different approaches while others provide some flexibility, it is key to understand your reporting requirements (as discussed in the first episode in this miniseries, Talking GHG: Reporting requirements for greenhouse gas emissions). We’ll highlight different approaches and the impacts (sometimes more significant than one would expect) that an organizational boundary may have on reporting.

    In this episode, they discuss:

    • 2:34 – What operational boundaries are and how they interact with organizational boundaries
    • 4:37 - Overview of scope 1, scope 2, and scope 3 emissions and classification
    • 10:44 – How and why operational boundaries are determined
    • 18:13 - Challenges in classifying emissions from leased assets and the impact of different sustainability frameworks
    • 34:19 – Practical advice for determining operational boundaries
