New Climate Rating Tool from Iceberg Data Lab Empowers Everyone to Measure Impact
)
Iceberg Data Lab has announced, during Responsible Investment Week, the publication of the Climate Rating scores of all 8,500 companies within its research universe, available to the public on the Iceberg Data Lab website. This initiative aims to increase transparency and facilitate access for a wide audience to independent assessments of companies' alignment with the Paris Agreement climate goal.
The Climate Rating analyzes companies' performance in terms of their climate trajectory. Each company is ranked according to six categories, based on its alignment with the 1.5°C target, ranging from Leader to Low.
The ranking is carried out by sector of activity and is based on the SB2A (Science-Based 2-Degree Alignment Metric) indicator developed by IDL. The SB2A identifies the largest carbon emitters and climate trajectories and helps to build portfolios with limited climate risk.
“By making the Climate Rating accessible to all, we are helping to improve transparency on companies' climate performance. At a time when many stakeholders are under pressure or suffering from a shortage of resources, we are reaffirming our company's commitment to supporting the financial sector in the transition,” explains Matthieu Maurin, CEO of Iceberg Data Lab.
This new step confirms Iceberg Data Lab's commitment to providing innovative solutions to accelerate the transition to a more sustainable economy that respects planetary boundaries.

Double Materiality
Double materiality is reshaping corporate sustainability by requiring companies to assess not only how environmental and social issues impact their financial performance, but also how their own activities affect people and the planet. With adoption rising from 9% to 27% in just one year, this dual-lens approach has become central to global reporting regulations such as the EU’s CSRD. This article breaks down the concepts of impact and financial materiality, explains regulatory expectations, outlines practical assessment methodologies, and shows how scientific ESG data solutions—such as those from Iceberg Data Lab—enable organisations to turn double materiality from a compliance exercise into a strategic advantage that strengthens risk management, stakeholder trust, and long-term value creation.

Scope 3 Emissions
Scope 3 emissions—the indirect greenhouse gases across an organisation’s entire value chain—often account for 70-90% of a company’s total carbon footprint, making them the most complex yet crucial component of corporate climate action. From upstream suppliers to downstream product use, managing these emissions requires sophisticated data analytics, supplier engagement, and strategic value chain optimisation. This article explores how businesses can accurately measure, report, and reduce Scope 3 emissions using Iceberg Data Lab’s advanced ESG solutions, unlocking both climate impact and competitive advantage while aligning with regulatory requirements, net-zero commitments, and investor expectations.

Scope 2 Emissions
Scope 2 emissions—indirect greenhouse gases from purchased electricity, heating, cooling, and steam—are a critical focus for companies aiming to meet net-zero targets and regulatory compliance. Unlike direct emissions, these indirect emissions can be significantly influenced through strategic energy procurement, efficiency improvements, and renewable energy integration. This article explores how businesses can accurately measure, report, and reduce Scope 2 emissions using Iceberg Data Lab’s advanced ESG analytics. From dual GHG Protocol accounting methods to innovative reduction strategies like on-site renewables and 24/7 carbon-free energy, organisations can optimise energy use, demonstrate environmental leadership, and drive measurable progress toward global sustainability goals.

Scope 1 Emissions: Direct Greenhouse Gas
Scope 1 emissions—the direct greenhouse gases from company-owned or controlled sources—form the foundation of effective corporate climate action. From fuel combustion in boilers and vehicles to industrial processes and fugitive emissions, these direct emissions present immediate opportunities for reduction and operational efficiency improvements. In this article, we explore how businesses can accurately measure, manage, and reduce Scope 1 emissions using Iceberg Data Lab’s advanced ESG analytics. By integrating robust data management, scientific methodologies, and strategic reduction practices, companies can achieve meaningful carbon reductions, enhance ESG performance, and unlock financial and operational benefits while advancing toward net-zero goals.

Avoided Emissions
Avoided emissions are a crucial yet often overlooked aspect of climate action, representing the greenhouse gas reductions enabled by products and services that displace higher-emission alternatives. As businesses face increasing pressure to showcase their broader environmental contributions, understanding and reporting avoided emissions—often referred to as "Scope 4"—is becoming essential. This innovative framework complements traditional emissions reporting and allows organizations to demonstrate their positive climate impact across entire value chains. In this article, we explore how Iceberg Data Lab’s advanced climate analytics help businesses credibly calculate and report avoided emissions, enhancing transparency, mitigating greenwashing risks, and aligning with global sustainability standards.

2 Degree Target: Critical Climate Threshold for Global Warming Prevention
The 2°C target is a critical threshold in the global effort to prevent dangerous climate change, aiming to limit temperature rise and avert catastrophic consequences. With current temperatures already up by 1.1°C, the world faces urgent action to avoid crossing into a 3.2°C scenario by 2050. Exceeding this target would trigger severe economic and environmental risks, including rising sea levels, extreme weather events, and massive financial losses. In this article, we explore how the 2°C limit drives international climate policy and the urgent need for emissions reductions. Iceberg Data Lab’s cutting-edge climate analytics provide essential tools for financial institutions, corporations, and policymakers to navigate this critical threshold and secure a stable, sustainable future.
