Is primary data for PCFs a myth?

In carbon accounting, primary data is the gold standard. But in a world where such data is at best elusive, and more often non-existent, does it make sense to chase primary data? See why we—along with PACT—recommend getting started with what data you have to make progress on your decarbonization goals.
