Many know the Greenhouse Gas (GHG) protocol in terms of the scope 1,2 and 3 classifications, but far fewer know the official breakdown of emissions sub-categories beyond that. 

In this whitepaper we list out all 20 sub-categories of the GHG reporting protocol and offer a description and also a preview as to how Spherics methodology addresses each.

We look at:

  • Overview of the Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emission protocol, the carbon footprinting methodology that sits behind almost every carbon emissions framework and legislation. 
  • An overview of the methodology that Spherics uses to calculate carbon emissions for customers
  • A breakdown between direct and indirect emissions. 
  • A full breakdown of each of the 20 sub categories that make up scopes 1,2 and 3
  • A summary of how Spherics use a combination of spend based and activity based calculations for different sub categories

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.

A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!

Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
