In anticipation of this, some large companies are now including in new supplier contracts a requirement for targeted reductions in carbon emissions.

- Should you be requiring your suppliers to reduce their carbon emissions?
- Have you started planning for a Net-Zero future?
- Can you reduce the carbon footprint of product packaging?
- Is a fully electric transport fleet a practical solution for you?
- What are the likely timescales for hydrogen powered vehicles?
- Can you reduce the carbon emissions of warehouse operations?

- What fuel should your mechanical handling equipment use?
- Can warehouse operations be redesigned to enable a reduction in activity?
