Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Using data from a survey of Japanese manufacturing firms, we identified the determinants of firm’s choice to measure Scope 3 emissions. Scope 3 emissions are all indirect emissions that occur in the supply chain, including both upstream and downstream emissions. Our result shows that if firms received requests from customers for information disclosure, they are likely to measure more Scope 3 categories. We also found that firms, which were asked by stakeholders, such as investors and consumers to reduce GHG emissions, tend to measure more Scope 3 categories. Additionally, for these firms, requests for information disclosure from their customers have a stronger effect on the number measured categories of Scope 3. In the case of measuring Scope 3 emissions, which requires cooperation with suppliers and customers, requests from downstream of the supply chain play an important role.
