Most people now accept that climate change is occurring and has to be stopped if we are to avoid the loss of habitat, major social upheaval and threats to many communities around the World. In response, the Government has committed the UK to achieve net zero carbon emissions by 2050. A move generally supported by both individuals and companies as one of the ways to reduce climate change.
From being a subject of interest to only a minority of the population, climate change has moved to being of real concern to the majority of staff and customers. Addressing this issue is not just socially responsible it is also good business practice as, companies that fail to act, are, in the future, likely to be penalised through lost sales and financial penalties. Addressing this issue is no longer an option but an essential element of future business planning.

For most companies, achieving net zero will not be easy. It will take time and careful planning. A journey that will rely on continued technical innovation and constant adjustment as new technologies emerge and government legislation is enacted. Davies & Robson with a history of integrating technical developments into supply chain solutions are well placed to help you on that journey.
