HowGood announced an expanded carbon accounting solution designed to streamline ESG reporting and carbon reduction for the food industry.
The Latis platform will now provide enterprise food companies with an accurate reflection of their corporate footprint across Scopes 1, 2, and 3, powered by HowGood’s granular product carbon footprinting data.
“Companies across the food industry are under intense pressure to not only report on their total footprint, but to be able to demonstrate immediate progress toward reduction for both direct and indirect emissions,” says Nina DePalma, head of product at HowGood. “Historically, corporate carbon accounting has not benefited from the immense granularity and accuracy that product-level carbon footprinting brings to the table, creating silos of data that make it difficult for companies to demonstrate the impacts of the sustainability initiatives they're undertaking. We are so pleased to now offer our customers a solution that bridges this gap, bringing HowGood’s product-level granularity and deep agricultural expertise to full-scope carbon accounting at the enterprise scale. It is truly what is needed to move the needle on impact reduction.”
Key takeaways:
- HowGood’s carbon accounting solution draws on its database of 90,000 agricultural emission factors to provide full emissions reporting across Scopes 1, 2, and 3.
- The solution also delivers SBTi FLAG reporting for land-based emissions; forecast and model abatement strategies; and audit-ready data with granular accounting.
- The Latis platform allows food companies to calculate their footprint across key environmental and social impact metrics, discover and model impact reduction initiatives for greenhouse gas emissions, water usage, biodiversity, and more, and discover eligible sustainability marketing claims.
