    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, though aware of their carbon footprint, 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.

    Led by industry analyst Adrian Gonzalez, you will learn about:

    • The imminent challenges faced by companies in calculating and reporting greenhouse gas emissions across their supply chains
    • The journey from traditional tracking of shipments, orders, inventory, and assets in motion, to the imperative expansion of end-to-end supply chain visibility.
    • 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 will be dissected, unraveling the current landscape and future expectations.
