Episode 66: How environmental regulations shape business supply chain practices
“If we focus on the logistics sector or the wider transportation sector, it's actually one of the highest emitting sectors on the planet.”
In the latest episode of Freight to the Point, Alex Hersham is joined by David de Picciotto, CEO and Co-founder of Pledge. During the episode, we delved into the crucial topic of sustainability regulations that businesses must stay informed about, and explored effective strategies for examining and enhancing their supply chain practices to ensure compliance.
Together they explore:
- The motivations for the creation of regulations
- Regulations businesses need to look out for
- The consequences of being non-compliant with the regulations.
