Unlocking Green Supply Chains: Navigating the Era of Mandatory Emission Reporting

Are you prepared to measure the greenhouse gas emissions across your Supply Chain?

In an era where environmental responsibility is no longer an option but a mandate, join us for a compelling webinar that sheds light on the pivotal shift in supply chain management. Many companies have yet to measure the greenhouse gas emissions intricately embedded in their supply chains.

With new legislation like the California carbon emissions mandate on the horizon, this practice will soon transition from voluntary to mandatory.

Join Adrian Gonzalez, a trusted advisor and leading industry analyst with more than 24 years of research experience in transportation management, logistics outsourcing, and other supply chain and logistics topics.  Learn about:

• How the focus extends beyond logistics to encompass the often-overlooked Scope 3 emissions, providing a comprehensive understanding of the entire carbon footprint.
• Key questions and insights stemming from a recent survey, unraveling the current landscape and future expectations.
• The imminent challenges faced by companies in calculating and reporting greenhouse gas emissions across their supply chains

Unique to Mr. Gonzalez' presentation is the use of real-time data gathered directly from you. Feel free to participate in a brief 8-question survey, taking approximately 3 minutes. The survey results will be shared during the webinar, and a recording of the session will be emailed to all registered participants.

Save the date: Wednesday, January 24th, 12 PM EST.
