Bart Coppelmans, director of industry solutions and global head of Supply Chain and Logistics at Here Technologies, explains the ways in which logistics stakeholders need to harness the power of data to accurately assess the carbon footprint of their supply chains in order that it can be reduced

Consumers are driving the pressure for companies to decarbonise supply chains, with awareness rising around environmental issues more generally, and corporate carbon emissions in particular.  For most companies, their supply chain is a far bigger source of carbon emissions than their internal operations. Eight global supply chains, in sectors such as food, construction and fashion, are responsible for 50% of the carbon emissions on planet Earth, according to research by the World Economic Forum.
