Program components:

T

he innovave program to reduce GHGs has three main com- ponents:

• Selecon –Walmart will focus on the product categories with the highest embedded carbon. This approach ensures the proj- ect team focuses on the categories that have the greatest op- portunity for reducons. Reducons can come from any part of a product’s life cycle.

• Acon – For a project to be included, it must reduce GHGs from a product in either the sourcing of raw materials, manu- facturing, transportaon, customer use or end-of-life disposal.

• Assessment – Suppliers and Walmart will jointly account for the reducons. ClearCarbon will perform a quality assurance review of claims and PricewaterhouseCoopers will assess pro- cedures followed.
