Sponsored: Discover innovative strategies to reduce supply chain-related emissions and build a more sustainable and resilient energy future. This article is sponsored by Prologis. In the coming decades as the world electrifies to decarbonize, global energy demand will surge. Businesses must manage today’s pressures on their operations - such as geopolitical tension and labor disruptions - while investing in future-focused solutions such as renewable energy, electric vehicles and automation alongside artificial intelligence. To find the balance, leaders want to know what they can do to improve their efficiency today while planning for a sustainable tomorrow. As the global leader in logistics real estate with 1.2 billion square feet under management, we are uniquely positioned to help address supply chain decarbonization. Committed to net-zero emissions by 2030 in operations and by 2040 across our value chain, we've set concrete interim goals, including deploying 1 gigawatt of solar by 2025. In collaboration with our customers, we have an immense opportunity to innovate and decarbonize operations across the supply chain. Here is how Prologis approaches sustainable logistics - from building conception to the sustainable movement of goods - and how your organization can future-proof its supply chain and drive lasting, sustainable impact. To support the goal of reducing emissions from the built environment - which includes all types of residential and commercial buildings - business owners need to optimize operational efficiency and build using low-carbon solutions. Our global construction innovation team is evaluating over 140 construction technologies to reduce our embodied carbon footprint. Plant-based materials - such as mass timber, wood fiberboard insulation and chemically augmented wood - present promising opportunities as they meaningfully reduce carbon emissions and are increasingly feasible economically.
