osapiens CCF Webinar Series: From Carbon Footprint to Climate Targets

Calculating a Corporate Carbon Footprint (CCF) is only the starting point. The harder questions come afterwards: Which Scope 3 categories matter for your business? How reliable is your data? What should you reduce first, and which targets can you credibly commit to?

This five-part series, in collaboration with SAIM Consulting, follows that path, from the fundamentals of carbon accounting to carbon management. It is aimed at sustainability practitioners who need a practical introduction, a structured refresher, or support with the next step in their CCF work. The content is practical and focused on methodology. This is not a sales pitch.
