The recently concluded United Nations Climate Conference (COP26) brought supply chain sustainability into the forefront once again. To keep global warming within 1.5 to 2 degrees Celsius, global emissions must be cut by 7.6% each year till 2030.
The transportation and logistics industry, which contributes 17% to global greenhouse gas emissions, has a pivotal role to play in keeping global warming under check. By focusing on sustainability, logistics can empower enterprises to reduce their carbon footprint and prove to be a game-changer in battling climate change.
In its 2021 State of Supply Chain Sustainability report, the MIT Center for Transportation and Logistics defines supply chain sustainability as the management of environmental and social impacts within and across networks consisting of suppliers, manufacturers, distributors, and customers in line with the UN Sustainable Development Goals.
