Sustainability
Certification coverage, scoped
One scope: certification coverage. What the named certification covers, and what it does not. Not a ranking.

Dataset date: September 16, 2026
- Sample
- 6 sample items, one certification question each.
- Source
- Illustrative file, not a life-cycle assessment and not a certification audit.
- Counted
- What the named certification covers, and what it does not cover. Coverage only.
Sample rows. Illustrative until Journey AI replaces this file.
This benchmark has one scope: certification coverage. It does not score waste, miles, greenhouse gases, or a product as greener than another.
A certification names a boundary. The row records that boundary, and what sits outside it. There is no rank.
What the certification covers
Sample items. No score, no rank, no second metric.
