Navigating the Complexities of Emissions Inventories with Revelyst
Revelyst is a global leader in outdoor gear with over 30 brands under its umbrella. In 2024, Fresh Coast started working with Revelyst to develop a greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions inventory of one swath of its customer brands. Revelyst was motivated by two primary factors: the company was seeing an increase in customer demands for sustainability data and the company is motivated by a genuine commitment to its environmental conservation values.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a GHG Inventory, and why is it important?
A GHG Inventory is a comprehensive account of an organization’s greenhouse gas emissions. It’s essential for understanding an organization’s climate impact, developing a baseline so reduction goals can be properly created, and identifying opportunities for decarbonization. A comprehensive GHG Inventory delivers:
- Regulatory Compliance: Meet mandatory disclosure requirements in California, EU, and other emerging US state-level regulations
- Strategic Baseline: Establish the foundation for any credible decarbonization strategy or science-based target
- Risk Management: Identify your organization's primary sources of climate risk and financial exposure
- Investor Readiness: Provide the transparent, auditable data increasingly demanded by investors and lenders
- Operational Insight: Uncover efficiency opportunities and cost-saving measures hidden in your emissions profile
- Credibility: Third-party validated inventories withstand stakeholder scrutiny better than self-calculated estimates. They also support companies whose internal staff resources are stretched thin or don’t possess the expertise to conduct a credible GHG inventory
What are Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions?
Scope 1 emissions are direct emissions from sources owned or controlled by your company, such as on-site operational processes, refrigerants, and company vehicles. Scope 2 emissions are indirect emissions from purchased energy –including electricity and natural gas – often used for heating, cooling, and other operational needs. Scope 3 emissions are other indirect emissions throughout the value chain — including purchased goods and services, leased assets, business travel, waste disposal, logistics, and even use of sold products and end-of-life of products.
How do you develop a GHG Inventory?
We work with our clients to understand their organization and start by generating a proper organizations boundary and defining what needs to be evaluated as part of Scope 1, 2, and 3 and start by generating an organizational boundary to define what needs to be evaluated as part of Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions. Relevant data is then gathered accounting for each of the categories included in each scope and the data is calculated according to industry standards such as the GHG Protocol and ISO 14064.
