A Deeper Dive: The Path to Decarbonizing Global Supply Chains

Case Study – Cost-Effective, High-Impact Climate Solutions for Supply Chains

Climate leaders can gain a competitive advantage by attracting better talent, reducing risk exposure, accessing cheaper capital, and creating higher shareholder value. By prioritizing energy efficiency and switching to renewable power, companies can save cash while saving carbon.

The urgent need for businesses to commit to sustainability and take action is indisputable.

Companies can make a significant impact on climate change by addressing their Scope 3 emissions and decarbonizing their supply chains.

According to a joint report by Boston Consulting Group (BCG) and the World Economic Forum, eight supply chains, including food, construction, fashion, and electronics, account for over 50% of global emissions.

By implementing readily available and affordable measures, it’s possible to abate 40% of these emissions. Achieving a net-zero supply chain is possible with limited additional costs.

The following nine initiatives can be undertaken to being decarbonizing your supply chain:

1. Build a baseline and exchange data with suppliers

2. Set ambitious reduction targets on Scopes 1-3 and publicly report.

3. Redesign products for sustainability.

4. Design value chain/sourcing strategies from sustainability.

5. Integrate metrics in procurement standards and track performance.

6. Work closely with suppliers to address their emissions

7. Engage in sector initiatives for best practices and certifications.

8. Scale-up “buying groups” to amplify demand-side commitments.

9. Introduce low-carbon governance to align internal incentives.

Actionable Sustainability Measures

A terrific example of climate solutions for supply chains is Patagonia and its 4-Fold Approach to Supply Chain Decisions. Patagonia screens potential suppliers for sourcing, quality, social, and environmental standards and has a collaborative decision-making process involving sourcing, quality, and social and environmental responsibility teams.

While Patagonia’s efforts will be difficult for most companies to achieve quickly, every company can begin to take steps in the right direction. And as you’ve seen, the cost of deep decarbonization is relatively low, with an increase of only 1-4% in end-consumer prices. Transportation and logistics, which account for 16% of total emissions, can play a significant role in leading change.

Market leaders can thrive by taking an early market position and securing additional competitive advantages for years to come.
