Decarbonation, scope 3, and CSRD Reducing your transport carbon footprint: scope 3 and CSRD
Freight transport weighs heavily in a company's scope 3 (indirect emissions). Reducing it runs through the choice of mode (ocean emits far less than air per tonne-kilometer, rail less than road), optimizing load factor and lanes, and diversifying toward low-carbon solutions. To measure and report it (CSRD), you need reliable, traceable emissions data per shipment - which few freight forwarders provide yet. A forwarder able to produce usable CO2 reporting becomes an asset for compliance and differentiation.
