    Assessing GHG emissions through the entire value chain is not about measuring for the sake of measuring- it's about measuring GHG emissions in order to manage and reduce them. A full assessment of a company's value chain is an essential first step in reducing emissions, as it identifies the areas with highest emissions and enables a company to target efforts where there is the most opportunity for reductions. Companies that develop the most effective methods to engage with their suppliers can benefit from improved supply chain efficiency; reduced risk from suppliers passing on higher energy or emissions-related costs; reduced risk of supply chain business interruption; improved relationships with suppliers; and identification of new revenue streams.

  • When I was a very young journalist, full of bravado and barely concealed insecurity, Ed Kosner, editor of Newsweek, hired me to do a job I wasn't sure I was capable of doing. Thrown into deep water, I had no choice but to swim. But I also knew he wouldn't let me drown. His confidence buoyed me.
  • The more leaders make us feel valued, in spite of our imperfections, the less energy we will spend asserting, defending and restoring our value, and the more energy we have available to create value.

  • In part one of this article, (here) I laid out the business case for carbon foot-printing your supply network. Part two identifies practical steps of where to begin, followed by suggestions to ensure lasting success.
  • Start by recognizing and measuring the environmental areas (such as GHG / carbon emissions, energy use, waste and water consumption, and use of other natural resources) to get a baseline. This can be done internally or by working with a third party partner or specialized sustainability consulting firm on an environmental and/or carbon footprint assessment. I have seen many organizations set up internal "Green Teams" or eco-working groups to begin looking at measuring their company's carbon footprint. The most important part of this process is engaging both your employees as well as your suppliers. Carbon management is a team effort. It takes collaboration, transparent communication, and a willingness to see the greater benefits for everyone involved.
