Greenhouse Gas Emissions

Enveritas verifies CO₂e emissions across your supply chain, giving your company credible data to report, reduce, and act on climate commitments.

14,000,000+

farms assessed in 2026

16,000,000+

tons CO₂e verified, 2026

ISO 14065

standards compliant

Verified emissions, on top of a certified product.

Enveritas issues verified greenhouse gas footprints for coffee and cocoa purchases, drawing on the farm-level data already collected through our Responsibly Sourced verification. The service closes the most consistent gap in Scope 3 reporting for soft commodities — credible activity data at origin — and is issued as an additional claim alongside our core Responsibly Sourced per Enveritas Standards claim.

Built for companies with Scope 3 reporting obligations

Who is it for

Enveritas GHG verification is designed for coffee and cocoa buyers — roasters, manufacturers, tea companies, and retailers — that need credible, independently verified emissions data for their supply chain.

Good fit for

  • Companies with Scope 3 Category 11 reporting requirements
  • Buyers sourcing from fragmented, smallholder supply chains
  • Brands needing defensible claims under EU Green Claims Directive
  • Procurement teams running Continuous Improvement programs

What it is

Enveritas issues verified greenhouse gas footprints for coffee and cocoa purchases, drawing on farm-level data already collected through our Responsibly Sourced verification. Issued as an additional claim alongside the core Responsibly Sourced per Enveritas Standards claim.

  • Sourcing-area emissions

    Credible activity data collected at origin, not estimated from global averages.

  • ISO 14065 compliant

    Methodology aligned to ISO 14065 and the IPCC 2019 Refinement Guidelines.

  • Linked to purchase records

    Each lot mapped to a sourcing area - from full farmer-list to country-level attribution.

  • Supports reduction

    Surfaces where emissions concentrate so Continuous Improvement activity targets the right farms.

How it works

Three components turn farm visits into a reportable footprint and a starting point for reduction. This excludes nursery emissions & shade-free sequestration where activity-level uncertainty would compromise accuracy.

  1. 01 Traceability

    01 Traceability

    Purchase records map each lot to a sourcing area

    Ranging from full farmer-list traceability to country-level attribution.

  2. 02 Activity data

    02 Activity data

    Farm-level activity data

    Land use, farming practices, processing methods, and transport are captured during the same farm visit that supports the Responsibly Sourced claim.

  3. 03 Emission factors

    03 Emission factors

    Internationally established emission factors

    Activity data is combined with factors from the GHG Protocol, the IPCC 2019 Refinement Guidelines, and FAO ecological zone data to produce sourcing-area emissions in kilograms of CO₂e.

  4. 04 Decision

    04 Decision

    From verification to decision

    A verified footprint is the starting point, not the deliverable. By surfacing where emissions concentrate across sourcing areas, it directs Continuous Improvement activities that turn disclosure into reduction.
