Environmental data, from Scope 1 through the product chain.

GHG accounting across all three scopes, climate risk built into the same register, and natural-resource and product-level disclosures - all drawing on one data model instead of a spreadsheet rebuilt every reporting cycle.

01 · GHG accounting

Scope 1 - direct emissions from owned and controlled sources.

Everything burned, leaked or released on-site or by a company-controlled fleet - captured at facility and vehicle level, not estimated from a fuel-spend total.

Stationary Combustion

Fuel burned on-site for heat, power or industrial process - boilers, furnaces, generators and turbines.

Natural gas, diesel, coal & fuel oil combustion
Facility-level meter & fuel-delivery data capture

Mobile Combustion

Company-owned and leased vehicles - road fleet, off-road equipment, and where relevant, owned aircraft or vessels.

Fleet-level fuel & mileage activity data
Vehicle-type & fuel-type emission factors

Fugitive & Process Emissions

Refrigerant leaks, industrial process emissions and other releases that don't come from combustion at all.

Refrigerant & HVAC leak-rate tracking
Industrial process emissions by facility
02 · GHG accounting

Scope 2 - emissions from purchased energy.

Reported both ways the GHG Protocol requires - location-based against the grid you actually sit on, and market-based against what you've actually contracted to buy.

Purchased Electricity

Grid electricity draw, metered by facility and matched to the correct grid-mix emission factor.

Grid-mix factors refreshed by country & utility
Sub-metered by facility, not company-wide average

Steam, Heat & Cooling

Purchased thermal energy - district heating, steam and chilled water - accounted the same way as electricity.

District energy supplier emission factors
Metered consumption, not floor-area estimate

Location-Based & Market-Based

Both figures reported side by side, so a renewable energy contract shows up honestly rather than replacing the grid reality.

Location-based: average grid emission intensity
Market-based: contractual instruments (RECs, PPAs)
03 · GHG accounting

Scope 3 - everything upstream and downstream in the value chain.

Typically 70%+ of a company's total footprint, and the category most competitors estimate from spend data. SYNE builds it from supplier-submitted primary data and product-level LCA instead.

Upstream Categories

Purchased goods & services, capital goods, fuel- and energy-related activities, upstream transportation, waste and business travel.

Product-level LCA across 300,000+ items
Employee commuting & business travel activity data

Downstream Categories

Downstream transportation, processing and use of sold products, end-of-life treatment, franchises and investments.

Use-phase emissions from actual product LCA
End-of-life pathway modelled per commodity

Supplier-Submitted Primary Data

Suppliers submit activity data directly through the platform - the same traceability layer SYNE Trust runs on.

2M+ suppliers submitting primary data
Verified against underlying records, not self-attested
See Supply Chain
Comprehensive by design

Full-scope GHG coverage - measured, not modeled.

Every scope draws on the same emission-factor library and LCA data set, so numbers stay consistent whether they're used for a regulator filing or a lender's risk model.

3M+Emission factors
100+Countries
300K+Product LCAs

Climate Strategy, Risk & Management Systems.

From target-setting to governance maturity - the same risk register that scores a customer's portfolio also scores the climate strategy behind this disclosure.

Physical & Transition Risk Assessment

Asset-level physical risk (flood, heat, water stress) and transition risk (policy, market, technology shift), scored continuously.

Asset-level physical risk scoring
Transition risk across policy, market & technology

Science-Based Target Setting

Emissions-reduction targets benchmarked against 1.5°C-aligned pathways, with scenario analysis behind the number.

Target-setting against science-based pathways
Scenario analysis under NGFS-aligned pathways

Climate Governance & Management Maturity

Board-level oversight of climate strategy, tracked as a maturity score rather than a yes/no checkbox.

Board-level climate oversight documented
Management maturity scored, not self-declared
05 · Beyond carbon

Natural Resources & Pollution.

Water, waste and pollutant impact - the environmental data that sits alongside carbon, not folded into it.

Water Withdrawal, Consumption & Discharge

Basin-level water stress data attached to every facility, not a single global water-use figure.

Withdrawal, consumption & discharge by facility
Basin-level water-stress context attached

Waste Generation, Diversion & Circularity

Waste tracked by type and destination - landfill, incineration, recycling or recovery - not a single tonnage total.

Waste generation by type & disposal route
Diversion rate & circularity tracking

Air, Soil & Water Pollutant Monitoring

NOx, SOx, particulate matter and other pollutants, tracked separately from GHG accounting.

Air pollutant monitoring (NOx, SOx, PM)
Soil & water contaminant tracking by site
06 · Beyond carbon

Product, Supply Chain & Disclosures.

Where environmental impact meets what you actually sell - product-level LCA, supplier disclosures, and the packaging and land-use reporting that sits behind them.

Product-Level Life-Cycle Assessment

Cradle-to-grave LCA for 300,000+ products, built from actual commodity and process data, not a category average.

Cradle-to-grave assessment per product line
Built on activity data, not spend-based estimation
See LCA

Supplier Emissions & Environmental Disclosures

Supplier-submitted environmental data verified against underlying records, across a 2M+ supplier network.

Supplier environmental disclosure, verified not self-reported
Multi-tier traceability down to the source
See Supply Chain

Packaging, Biodiversity & Land-Use Reporting

Packaging material and recyclability data, alongside biodiversity and land-use impact by site.

Packaging material & recyclability tracking
Biodiversity & land-use impact by site

Every Environmental data point runs into the same register used for climate risk scoring.
