Insetting and Scope 3 climate action: applying and accounting for Natural Climate Solutions (NCS) in land sector value chains

This brief from WBCSD can help you to better understand the emerging practice of insetting is and why it is especially important in land sector value chains. The paper defines insetting; outlines how the GHG Protocol’s draft guidance is accounting for insets; and describes the business case for insetting and the need to harmonise insetting definitions and accounting. The guidance will be most useful to sustainability practitioners and supply chain managers working in agriculture and forestry, or in other industries with significant land use.
