Beyond the Report: How GHG Inventories Drive Better Business Decisions
Featuring Emma Hughes, Sr. Director of Climate Risk Solutions at RE Tech Advisors, the conversation unpacks what a GHG inventory is, how emissions are categorized across Scopes 1, 2, and 3, and why emissions data has become increasingly important for investors, clients, employees, and regulators. Listeners gain insight into how carbon accounting supports risk management, capital planning, and long-term sustainability goals. The episode also examines the realities of emissions reporting in a growing organization, including data quality challenges, third-party assurance, methodology improvements, and the role technology plays in creating more accurate, scalable reporting programs. Through Legence’s experience, the discussion highlights how organizations can use sustainability data not just to report performance, but to identify opportunities for continuous improvement and stronger business outcomes.
