6% of leading companies already deselect suppliers who fail to manage carbon, 56% committed to do so in the future
February 1 2010 — London: Suppliers are now expected by some of their global customers to demonstrate greenhouse gas emissions management, awareness and action, in order to maintain business relationships, a Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP) report shows.
The second annual CDP Supply Chain Report, produced by A.T. Kearney, summarizes climate change information* from 710 suppliers. Members, who include global customers, such as Dell, Juniper Networks, National Grid, PepsiCo and Reckitt Benckiser are requesting their suppliers to disclose data via the CDP Supply Chain program. Although this report shows significant improvement in best practices over last year’s results, suppliers still have a long way to go.
