Many companies are motivated to set value-chain GHG emissions targets and report on their progress, using approaches such as the Greenhouse Gas Protocol and the Science Based Targets Initiative. As part of their reduction strategy, companies may employ 'Interventions' to help partners upstream and downstream reduce emissions. Yet to date, emission reductions at this level could not be accounted for in the leading GHG accounting frameworks. Thus, companies were not recognised, nor incentivised to invest in these types of projects or programmes.
