Steps Businesses Can Take to Reduce Their Carbon Footprint

Businesses can take steps to reduce their carbon footprint and become more resilient to the disruption caused by extreme weather events. This includes reducing dependency on parts and materials from far-flung locations, storing three-four months’ worth of goods at a time, and increasing visibility into their operations. Additionally, businesses can look into using renewable energy in their warehouses, purchasing carbon offsets, and utilizing two-wheel modes of delivery for shorter last-mile routes. Finally, businesses can consider creating virtual fleets that share deliveries for different companies, which can lead to efficiency gains. By taking these steps, businesses can stay ahead of the curve and help mitigate climate change.
