Feature & Improvement Requests

Summary As a sustainability manager at a large corporation, I am responsible for tracking and reducing our company's emissions. One of the challenges I face is accurately assigning emissions from our level 2 emission groups to our level 3 product carbon footprints. I want to be able to use established allocation rules and data from our level 2 emission groups to distribute emissions to our level 3 products in a consistent and transparent manner. I want to be able to easily set up and manage the allocation rules that will be used, as well as collect and organize the necessary data. I also want to be able to apply the allocation rules and review the resulting emissions data to ensure its accuracy and consistency. By using this functionality, I can improve the accuracy of our emissions data and better understand the environmental impact of our products. This will enable me to develop more effective strategies for reducing our emissions and achieving our sustainability goals. Some examples how to do To use level 2 data (emission groups) to allocate emissions to level 3 product carbon footprints, the following steps could be taken: Determine the allocation rules that will be used to distribute emissions from the level 2 emission groups to the level 3 product carbon footprints. This could involve using a simple allocation method, such as a uniform distribution, or a more complex method that takes into account factors such as product sales or production volume. Collect the necessary data, such as emissions data for the level 2 emission groups and product-related data for the level 3 product carbon footprints. Use the allocation rules to distribute the emissions from the level 2 emission groups to the level 3 product carbon footprints. This could involve applying the rules to the data to calculate the emissions for each product. Review and validate the allocated emissions to ensure that they are accurate and consistent with the allocation rules. This could involve checking for any inconsistencies or errors and making any necessary adjustments. Use the allocated emissions to report on the environmental impact of the organization's products. This could involve presenting the data in a clear and concise manner, such as in a table or graph, to facilitate analysis and decision-making. The strengths of using level 2 data to allocate emissions to level 3 product carbon footprints include the ability to use established allocation rules and the availability of data for the level 2 emission groups. The limitations of this approach include the potential for allocation errors or inconsistencies and the inability to account for certain factors that may affect a product's emissions, such as the use of renewable energy or offsets.

A system for evaluating the reliability of this data. This could involve comparing the data from each supplier to other sources, such as industry standards or other suppliers' data, and assigning a rating or score based on how closely it matches. This rating could be shown in a variety of ways, such as a simple score or rating out of 100, a percentage of data points that were found to be accurate, or a comparison to other suppliers' data accuracy. For example, you might see a message like "Supplier A's data accuracy is 94%, which is higher than the average for your industry" or "Supplier B has 100% accurate data for the past 12 months." This information can help you understand the quality of the data provided by your suppliers and take action to improve it if necessary.

As a sustainability manager, you want to have an overview of the emissions libraries that ClimateCamp offers and uses in its platform. This will allow you to better understand the types of emissions data that are available and how they can be used. You can use this information to make more informed decisions about how to track and manage emissions in your organization. For example, you might want to see which emissions libraries are most commonly used by other organizations, or you might want to explore new emissions libraries that could help you better understand your own organization's emissions. By having an overview of the emissions libraries that ClimateCamp offers, you can make more informed decisions about how to track and manage emissions in your organization.

As a sustainability manager, i want to set all my activity data as "reviewed" once i know that my final activities are correctly set in the system. As a sustainability manager, you want to be able to keep track of which activity data has been reviewed and which data is still outstanding or pending. One way you could do this is by using a "tag" system to mark data that has been reviewed, allowing you to easily identify which data still needs to be reviewed. For example, you could create a "reviewed" tag and apply it to any activity data that has been reviewed. This way, you can quickly and easily see which data still needs to be reviewed by looking for items that do not have the "reviewed" tag.

Summary It would be important to have a consistent experience for entering data for both level 2 and level 3 emissions, as this will help the user understand how the data is structured and how to enter it correctly. Consistency in the user experience will also make it easier for the user to switch between the two levels and enter data for both levels without having to learn new input forms or navigation controls. Having a consistent experience for entering level 2 and level 3 data could involve using the same input fields and buttons for both levels, as well as similar visual design elements and layout. This would help the user to easily recognize and understand the different components of the data entry process, regardless of which level they are entering data for. Overall, consistency in the user experience will help to make the data entry process for level 2 and level 3 emissions more intuitive and efficient, and will make it easier for the sustainability manager to track and reduce the company's emissions. 3 potential approaches Use a single input form with a drop-down menu that allows the user to select the level they are entering data for. The form could include fields for entering data on the emissions sources or products, as well as fields for calculating the total emissions and the percentage of the company's total emissions. Use a tabbed interface, with separate tabs for level 2 and level 3 data entry. This would allow the user to easily switch between the two levels and enter data for each level without having to fill out multiple forms. One way to make the data entry process for level 2 and level 3 emissions more visual and interactive is to use a drag-and-drop interface, where the user can drag and drop components onto a canvas to represent the emissions sources or products. This could be a more engaging and intuitive way for the user to enter data, and could make it easier for them to see the relationships between the different emissions sources or products.

As a sustainability manager, the user wants to set up and manage both their level 2 emission groups and their level 3 product carbon footprints. They want to be able to easily navigate between the two levels and see the differences between them in order to develop effective strategies for reducing emissions and reaching sustainability goals. As a sustainability manager at a large corporation, I am responsible for tracking and reducing our company's emissions. I want to be able to set up both our level 2 emission groups and our level 3 product carbon footprints so that I can have a comprehensive view of our emissions. I want to be able to easily navigate between the two levels and see the differences between them. At the level 2 emission group level, I want to be able to set up groups such as energy, transportation, and raw materials so that I can see our emissions from these sources. I also want to be able to see the total emissions from each group as well as the percentage of our total emissions that each group represents. At the level 3 product carbon footprint level, I want to be able to set up individual product footprints so that I can see the emissions associated with each of our products. I want to be able to see the total emissions from each product as well as the percentage of our total emissions that each product represents. I want to be able to easily navigate between the two levels and see the differences between them. For example, I may want to see how the emissions from a specific product compare to the emissions from the energy group, or how the emissions from the transportation group compare to the total emissions from all products. By being able to easily compare and contrast the two levels, I can develop effective strategies to reduce our emissions and reach our sustainability goals.

Request As a sustainability manager at a large organization, I want to be able to effectively manage our emissions at both the baseline level and the emission group level. I want to be able to easily navigate between these two levels so that I can see the overall picture of our emissions as well as drill down into specific emission groups. However, I recognize that there may be differences between the two levels that do not reconcile. I want to be able to easily identify and address these differences so that our emissions data is accurate and reliable. By having a clear and comprehensive view of our emissions, I can develop effective strategies to reduce our environmental impact and reach our sustainability goals. Some more info There can be several differences between the baseline level and the emission group level in terms of emissions data. At the baseline level, emissions data typically includes scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions, which are emissions that are directly produced by the organization, indirectly produced by the organization through the use of purchased energy, and emissions that are produced by the organization's activities but occur outside of its boundaries, respectively. At the emission group level, emissions data is typically broken down into different groups, such as energy, transportation, waste, and so on. This allows for a more detailed analysis of an organization's emissions and can help identify specific areas for improvement. One potential difference between the two levels is that the baseline level may include emissions from all sources, while the emission group level may only include emissions from specific sources within each group. For example, the energy group may only include emissions from electricity and heating, while the transportation group may only include emissions from company-owned vehicles. This can lead to differences in the total emissions reported at each level. Another potential difference is that the baseline level may include emissions from both current and past activities, while the emission group level may only include emissions from current activities. This can also lead to differences in the total emissions reported at each level. Overall, it is important to carefully review and compare emissions data at both the baseline level and the emission group level to ensure that it is accurate and complete.
