Global Supply Chain Report 2016
Following a global deal at COP21, the UN climate conference, companies and their suppliers must mobilize towards a climate resilient world.
This is a decisive time for the Earth’s climate and for the global economy. The COP21 Paris Agreement requires global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions to reduce to net zero well before the end of the century. With supply chains responsible for up to four times the GHGs of a company’s direct operations, they house sizable regulatory risk but also present ample opportunity for businesses to lower emissions.
