Businesses must ensure environmental successes trickle down supply chains

Businesses must ensure environmental successes trickle down supply chains

Businesses must ensure their environmental goals and successes filter down through their supply chains in order to drive genuine net zero progress.

That's the suggestion from Nick Molho, Executive Director of the Aldersgate Group, who outlined the three key tasks the alliance of business, politics and civil society leaders believes lie ahead of the private sector's journey to decarbonisation.

He said companies must set clear science-based targets with a clear ambition to get in line with the Paris Agreement, outline a strategy to reach net zero and ensure the businesses they work alongside are also similarly focused.

He noted it was also necessary for the government to drive progress by supplying innovation support, setting appropriate regulations and offering market incentives.
