Suppliers are cutting their own emissions, but must improve engagement in their own supply chains. To understand the environmental impact of a company’s economic activity, it is not enough to look at its direct emissions and risks. The entire value chain must be engaged to evaluate and improve its performance.
This report has been written by CDP, using CDP’s Supply Chain program data submissions to evaluate the activities of reporting organizations as a group, and to identify meaningful insights about the supply chain impacts on setting science based targets, zero-deforestation and water security targets. Moreover, it explores the state of environmental risks in supply chains and what approaches businesses are taking to mitigate them.
