 <h1>Technology Carbon Standard <small>(Proposed)</small></h1>

   <p>A proposed Technology Carbon Standard that aims to provide a unified standard for understanding, quantifying, and reducing carbon emissions from an organisation's technology landscape. Outlining a standardised methodology for attributing emissions to different aspects of the tech estate enables organisations to identify priority areas and opportunities to mitigate emissions effectively.</p>

   <p>The standard categorises emissions into three key areas:</p>
   <ul>
-    <li><strong>Upstream Emissions</strong>: Emissions relating to the production of hardware and the installed software used by the organisation.</li>
+    <li><strong>Upstream Emissions</strong>: Emissions relating to the embodied carbon of hardware and the carbon emissions of the development and distribution of installed software used by the organisation.</li>
 
     <li><strong>Operational Emissions</strong>: Emissions from the day-to-day running of the organisation's IT infrastructure and services. This encompasses emissions from powering devices, data centers, servers, and cloud services.</li>
