Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) considerations have become increasingly important for companies across various industries, including the information technology (IT) sector. As organizations worldwide aim to address sustainability challenges and social responsibilities, IT companies have developed solutions to assist businesses in managing their ESG objectives effectively.
ESG solutions provided by IT companies encompass a range of technologies and services designed to support environmental conservation, social impact, and governance transparency.
ESG is no longer an add-on or an afterthought to the investing process rather, it is now a crucial part of it. Our products are designed with the intention of giving customers the useful information they require to meet their sustainability objectives.
Direct greenhouse gas emissions from sources within the ownership or control of the organization are referred to as scope 1 emissions. These include burning fossil fuels to provide electricity, heat, and power for industrial activities.
Indirect emissions, or scope 2 emissions, are produced when the organization generates heat, steam, and purchased energy.
Other Indirect Emissions, or Scope 3 Emissions. A larger class of indirect emissions known as scope 3 emissions are those that come from activities that are part of the firm’s value chain but are not under the direct control of the organization. These emissions come from a variety of unowned and uncontrolled sources.
Reaching “net zero” means striking a balance between the amount of greenhouse gases released into the atmosphere and those that are taken out of it. This can be accomplished by cutting emissions as much as feasible and compensating for any leftover emissions with actions like investing in projects that lower emissions elsewhere or developing carbon removal technologies.
