popuppodcast.studio is a Dutch podcast and audio production company. We produce podcasts and audio content for organisations, including concept development, recording, editing, mixing, post-production and publication support. Recordings take place in our studio, on location or remotely. Where relevant, we also support video production. Our main emissions sources are electricity use, business travel, production days on location, equipment, digital storage, hosting and suppliers.

2.1 Net zero target year*
2050
2.1.1 Base year*
2025
2.1.2 Base year value*
4.2
Base year value confirmation*
-
2.2 Near-term target*
50% of absolute scope 1+2+3 emission reduction from my base year by 2030
2.3 Provide any additional comments or context on your net zero and near term targets.*
Our near-term target is an absolute emissions reduction target in line with the SME Climate Commitment. We aim to reduce total scope 1, 2 and 3 greenhouse gas emissions by 50% by 2030 from a 2025 base year, and to reach net zero by 2050. Our 2025 baseline emissions are estimated at 4.22 tCO₂e, calculated using the SME Climate Hub / Small Business Carbon Calculator. Some figures are estimated because the company operates from a shared building without separate metering. In addition to reducing emissions, we currently offset transport kilometres and electricity costs for on-location productions through Trees for All. These offsets are treated as an additional climate contribution and are not used as a substitute for reducing our own emissions. We will continue to refine our baseline and annual reporting as more detailed data becomes available.
2.4 To reduce emissions in line with my commitment, my company has a climate action plan and is taking action*
Yes, the plan and action include all scope 1+2+3
Own Emissions *
Energy consumption
3.2 Total energy consumption*

-
Scope 1 and 2 units confirmation*
-
3.7 Have you taken any actions to reduce Scope 1 and 2 emissions in the reporting period?*
-
3.8 Which tools or methods did you use to calculate your Scope 1 and 2 emissions?*
3.8.1 Specify any additional details*
We used the Small Business Carbon Calculator, supported by internal records and estimates. Fuel use is based on actual transactions. Electricity use is estimated because we operate from a shared building without separate metering. These estimates will be refined if more detailed landlord or supplier data becomes available.
Value Chain Emissions (optional)
Scope 3 emissions
4.1 Have you measured any of your scope 3 emissions?*
Yes
Supply chain related - upstream emissions
Customer related - downstream emissions
Scope 3 units confirmation*
-
4.2 Have you taken any actions to reduce scope 3 emissions in the reporting period?*
Yes
4.2.1 What actions have you taken to reduce scope 3 emissions in the reporting period?*
Climate strategy and planning, Energy efficient production processes, Business travel and commuting, Transport and logistics, Material circularity and waste reduction, Digital and technology-enabled solutions, Other company behavioural changes
4.2.2 Provide any additional details*
We are taking practical actions to reduce scope 3 emissions from travel, commuting/homeworking, waste, equipment use and digital operations. We reduce unnecessary travel by using remote preparation where suitable and by combining on-location recording days where possible. We keep audio and video equipment in use for as long as possible and avoid unnecessary purchases. We reduce unnecessary data storage by actively managing large audio and video files. Transport kilometres are offset through Trees for All as an additional climate contribution, but offsets are not used as a substitute for reducing our own emissions.
4.3 Have you asked any of your suppliers to set a net zero target (either voluntarily or as a requirement)?*
No
4.3.1 What percentage of your suppliers have you asked?*
-
4.4 Have you communicated your commitment and actions to any of your customers?*
Yes
4.5 Which tools or methods did you use to calculate your scope 3 emissions?*
Small Business Carbon Calculator, Own internal calculations
4.5.1 Specify additional details*
Scope 3 emissions were calculated using the Small Business Carbon Calculator, supported by internal records and estimates. Included categories are fuel- and energy-related activities, waste generated in operations and employee commuting/homeworking. Fuel data is based on actual transactions from the reporting period. Some scope 3 categories, such as purchased goods and services and capital goods, have not yet been measured separately and will be refined in future reporting.
Results, Challenges and Outlook *
7.1 Provide any additional comments or context on your annual results and progress from previous years.*
This is our first reporting year and 2025 is used as our baseline year. Therefore, we do not yet have year-on-year progress to report. Our estimated total emissions for 2025 are 4.22 tCO₂e, calculated using the Small Business Carbon Calculator and internal records. Some figures are estimated because the company operates from a shared building without separate metering. In future reporting, we will compare annual results against this baseline, refine estimates where better data becomes available and track progress towards our 2030 and 2050 targets.
7.2 Do you face any key challenges in reducing emissions?*
Reducing scope 3 emissions, Limited control over energy use in buildings, Reducing emissions from business travel, Electrifying the vehicle fleet and/or cutting transport emissions, Complexities in managing supply chain emissions, Time constraints, Inaccurate or insufficient data
Specify other challenges*
-
7.3 Has there been any third party validation of the data submitted in this report?*
No
