Combat the effects of climate change and limit the impact of business on the climate (Sustainable Development Goals - SDGs). Companies must meet a number of targets, one of which is to reduce emissions from their supply chains (SDG 13), which account for around 90% of all emissions.
Despite the titanic task of collecting this data upstream and downstream from suppliers, a group of researchers (Ayush Jain, Manikandan Padmanaban, Jagabondhu Hazra, Shantanu Godbole, Kommy Weldemariam) proposes using a subset of natural language processing (NLP), large language models (LLM), to estimate emissions tracking.
