About the guide
The Supplier Action Guide provides a practical framework that any company can use to work with suppliers to set and meet 1.5°C aligned targets. This approach can be cascaded by suppliers across their own supply chains.
The Supplier Action Guide is aligned with science and the 1.5°C Business Playbook, linking to pillar 2 of the four-pillar-climate strategy it presents, on reducing your value chain emissions.
About the leaders
The 1.5°C Supply Chain Leaders work together to drive climate action throughout global supply chains, and support small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) through the SME Climate Hub, understanding the need to work with and support suppliers to halve emissions before 2030 and achieve net zero emissions before 2050.
About the guide
This interactive guide created by BSR, the Exponential Roadmap Initiative and the 1.5°C Supply Chain Leaders, provides practical guidance that any company can utilize to work with suppliers to set and implement a 1.5°C aligned target and move to action. This is also an approach that suppliers can cascade across their supply chain.
The 1.5°C Supplier Engagement Guide suggests a structure to harmonize buyers’ requirements and simplify supplier engagement on climate. It provides leading examples derived from the experiences of the 1.5°C Supply Chain Leaders, as well as other leading practices and frameworks for supplier engagement, and is aligned with the 1.5°C Business Playbook.
