For big food brand owners like McCormick & Company who source from all over the world, scope 3 emissions dwarf scopes 1 and 2. Scope 3 makes up as much as 95% of McCormick's carbon footprint, and packaging constitutes 8% of that figure. “The era of make, use, dispose is over. We have to be thinking about make, use, reuse as we go forward if we want to save the planet," said Michael Okoroafor, Ph.D. at the recent Packaging Recycling Summit.
