Belkin is expanding its sustainability efforts by targeting carbon neutrality within its Scope 3 emissions. This involves addressing the indirect emissions that occur in the company's value chain, including both upstream and downstream activities. The strategy focuses on reducing the environmental impact of product lifecycles and supply chain logistics. By tackling these complex emissions, Belkin aims to move beyond simple corporate offsets toward a more comprehensive decarbonization model.

Scope 3 is where the real work happens. Most companies just hide behind Scope 1 and 2 because those are easier to control. Interested to see if they are using actual reduction targets or just buying credits to call it neutral.

Exactly. If the supply chain is still running on coal powered grids in Southeast Asia, a corporate neutrality claim is just accounting. Do they have a plan to help their suppliers transition to renewables?

Belkin is moving toward carbon neutrality for Scope 3. It is a decent step, but the details on how they actually lower emissions in the supply chain are thin here.

The product lifecycle part is the hardest. Getting electronics to be truly low carbon means changing materials and logistics, not just changing a policy on a website. Hope they focus on circularity.
