Let’s start with our name:
Scope 3 Solutions
Scope 1 and 2 emissions are easy to track.
Scope 3 — everything upstream and downstream — is where the real impact lies.
That’s where we work. That’s what we solve.
Who we are
We’re a sustainability company solving one of the hardest problems in business: what to do with everything you don’t see.
Scope 3 Solutions helps farms and manufacturers reclaim overlooked materials and turn them into assets. We focus on the Scope 3 emissions — the indirect, upstream and downstream impacts that most companies ignore, but that make up the majority of their environmental footprint.
We believe waste is a design flaw — and that nature already knows how to do things better. Our job is to listen, rebuild, and restore.
Our vision
A global supply chain that mirrors nature: circular, transparent, and regenerative.
We imagine a future where agricultural byproducts become the foundation of clean industry. Where carbon stays in the soil. Where discarded materials spark new economies. Where nothing — and no one — is thrown away.
Our work in action
Our first initiative begins with hemp.
In Oregon, we’re working with local farms to collect post-harvest industrial hemp stalks — a low-value byproduct typically burned or trashed — and upcycle them into strong, clean fiber for textiles and composites.
This single act diverts waste, supports regenerative farming, and creates new circular inputs for sustainable manufacturing. It’s just the beginning.
Meet the team!
We're a cross-disciplinary group of engineers, sustainability strategists, and systems thinkers. We’ve built robotics systems, led product teams, launched climate ventures, and worked directly with farms and manufacturers. What unites us? A belief that the overlooked still holds value — and that better systems are possible.

Moriah brings 10+ years of experience in manufacturing automation, robotics, and product management, with a strong foundation in both engineering and business strategy. She began her career in systems integration, working hands-on with manufacturing companies to implement automation solutions on the factory floor. Her interest in scalable innovation led to a master’s in Robotics, where her thesis focused on novel industrial automation systems. Over the years, she’s led cross-functional teams through complex automation projects across multiple industries, consistently driving efficiency and measurable impact. She also co-developed LabDash, a first-to-market COVID test reporting and lab information system used by over 10% of Oregon’s population—demonstrating her ability to deliver critical infrastructure under high-pressure, real-world conditions. Within a large organization, Moriah successfully launched and scaled an intrapreneurial startup, reflecting her ability to blend technical execution with entrepreneurial thinking. She holds an MBA with dual specializations in Innovation & Entrepreneurship and Advanced Strategy & Leadership, complementing her technical depth with a solid grasp of operations, finance, and strategic growth. Her work is grounded in a clear through-line: solving real problems with scalable, human-centered solutions—and always with an eye toward what’s next.

CTODan brings over a decade of hands-on experience across the USA's cannabis and hemp industries—working directly with farms, engaging in post-harvest processing, and prototyping early-stage hemp products for both consumer and industrial applications. His deep roots in the field give him practical insight into the regulatory, operational, and biological complexities of sustainable sourcing and development with hemp materials. Dan got into this work as a direct result of his term project in Engineering 101 during his freshman year of high school, where he learned about the incredible impact that industrial hemp paper could have on both the economy and environment. While getting his undergraduate degree in marketing, he made biodiesel from hemp seeds in his living room and submitted it to the Undergraduate Research Showcase as a feasibility study combined with a rough design for a biodiesel power generation facility. After that, he led small-scale R&D initiatives alongside global marketing strategies, bringing truly first-of-their-kind products to market—including the world’s first industrial hemp water filter and the first industrial hemp FPV racing drone frames. Dan recently graduated with an MBA specializing in Innovation & Entrepreneurship, at the same time as he received his Master of Science in Finance (MSF), and the Advanced Strategy & Leadership credential—adding strategic and financial depth to his technical and agricultural background. As his research transitioned away from academia, hemp would become a recurring subject that seemed to dominate discussions of equity, justice, and economic efficiency across many industries, geographies, and walks of life. Regardless of whether he is at an economic development consortium in Orlando, FL or at a sustainability conference in Eugene, OR, his passion for these subjects is contagious and rouses inspiring interactions and countless possibilities. Throughout his career, he has turned vision into reality, building new solutions and proving what’s possible in one of the most complex, fast-evolving industries.
