Abstract
The transparent and valid measurement of Scope 3 emissions (indirectly caused emissions upstream and downstream) represents one of the greatest challenges for companies during their sustainable transformation. In order to assess the current performance of a company and to derive the necessary action steps, it is essential to have the best possible knowledge of the current emissions. However, especially in the area of Scope 3, companies are dependent on external information and are not in a position to independently determine the ecological footprints of upstream purchased materials, products and services and the downstream emissions caused by products and services sold. This publication provides an overview of current main challenges and complexities deriving from the assessment of Scope 3 emissions and highlights the most suitable approaches to achieve best possible results.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
