The Scope 3 Podcast: How DitchCarbon Helps Practitioners Take Real Climate Action

As part of **Climate Week NYC's special series**, the Scope 3 Podcast sat down with our CEO, Marc Munier, to discuss why DitchCarbon exists, what sets our approach apart, and what's next in the journey to accelerate decarbonization.## Cutting Through the NoiseToo often, sustainability and procurement professionals spend their days drowning in supplier surveys, compliance checks, and reporting exercises. These are important, but they rarely add up to the real goal: actually reducing emissions.Marc shared his origin story and why he built DitchCarbon to flip this problem on its head. His vision is simple: give practitioners their time back, so they can stop chasing data and start cutting emissions.> Pledges don't cut emissions, action does.## Smarter ForecastingOne of the most exciting developments ahead for DitchCarbon is **smarter forecasting**. Rather than relying on supply chain averages, we're helping organizations see whether _individual suppliers_ are genuinely on track with their decarbonisation goals. This makes it possible to separate bold promises from measurable progress.## Scenario PlanningMarc also talked about our work in **scenario planning**. Leaders need more than dashboards-they need to test the impact of real-world choices:- Switching suppliers- Changing product designs- Investing in renewable energy- Applying life cycle assessments (LCAs)This moves the conversation from "Are we on track?" to "What exactly do we need to do if we're not?"## Empowering LeadersFinally, Marc emphasized that DitchCarbon is built to empower. By giving procurement and sustainability teams clarity and confidence, we're helping them unlock budgets, win executive support, and celebrate tangible successes along the way.## Looking AheadThe Scope 3 Peer Group's mission is to make sense of one of the toughest challenges in climate action, and Marc's conversation was a reminder of why we're here: to help practitioners shift from paperwork to progress.At DitchCarbon, we believe the future of climate action depends on freeing skilled people to do what they do best: **reduce emissions, not just report them.****Listen now:**- [Listen now](https://www.scope3peergroup.com/podcast)- [Spotify](https://open.spotify.com/episode/50J69Uun7u0d24aY59NJZl?si=31ef48122be24bce)- [Apple Podcasts](https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/ep-34-climate-week-nyc-2025-special-part-1/id1735580672?i=1000728239934)- [Amazon Music](https://music.amazon.co.uk/podcasts/d2b7128d-a668-432b-a55e-80eb2d2fc7d1/episodes/54ad484f-1dbe-402f-9840-fc24f662a009/the-scope-3-podcast-ep-34-climate-week-nyc-2025-special---part-1)
