Carbon emissions accounts for 42% of all worldwide Man-Made Greenhouse Gases. How much does your Supply Chain have?

Supply Chains have been under the green magnifying glass recently and the reason being simple: they can produce a greater part of the <place w:st="on" /><country-region w:st="on" />US</country-region /></place />’s carbon emissions.  Petroleum is used to move the bulk of the materials and goods.  In the <country-region w:st="on" /><place w:st="on" />US</place /></country-region />, petrolium makes up 97% of the CO2 Emissions in the transportation segment. This is only some of the puzzle.  A Supply Chain’s carbon emissions start from the raw materials to the disposal of the product.  By changing your vision to become greener, your supply chain can become more efficient, more cost-effective, and more environmentally conscious.  The Green trend has started with green buildings, hybrid cars, energy efficient appliances and others.  Will you be left behind in the Green Movement?Sources: <a href="http://www.eia.doe.gov/environment.html" target="_blank">Energy Information Administration</a><a href="http://mysite.verizon.net/mhieb/WVFossils/greenhouse_data.html" target="_blank">Global warming a closer look at numbers</a> 10 application/xml false Carbon Emissions Carbon Footprint CO2 Emissions Green Green Logistics Green Movement Green Supply Chain greenhouse gas emissions Supply Chain Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 7.0; Windows NT 5.1; .NET CLR 1.1.4322; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; InfoPath.1) 127.0.0.1 127.0.0.1 Establish false true false false true 187565 false false true false false false true 189098 Resource 187565 173239 173239 1194582663395 1194582663395 Controlled Some are trying to make a difference

Company own's up to its emissions

I just did a blog about Patagonia, a company that is owning up to the emissions and waste created when they make their products. It's good to see companies admit that there is more to do when it comes to cleaning up their act. 9 application/xml true Adventure 16 blog http://www.adventure16.com/a16blog1/ Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1.9) Gecko/20071025 Firefox/2.0.0.9 127.0.0.1 127.0.0.1 false true false false true 165493 blog blogsite/ChinaSupplyChain/web
