In Coldplay’s case thorough background checks of all suppliers and partners was critical. Upturn every stone to see what is lurking underneath and then check again – and then ask your supplier to qualify any claims. Indirect emissions (ie from supply chain) account for 11.4 times more emissions than operations do for large businesses. Supply chain engagement is key.
