Drastic action is needed throughout the industry to deliver the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals, set to be met by 2030.
Whilst significant changes have been made within the industry, more needs to be done in pursuit of a carbon-neutral logistics world. Global eCommerce has grown to hit $4.2 trillion and the online surge continues. Customers however are increasingly concerned about long-term environmental impact and expect more sustainable packaging and emission friendly vehicles for their home deliveries. In 2020, postal operators pursued their efforts to reduce CO2 emissions, despite the disruptions and the increased volumes linked to the COVID-19 pandemic and as a result, collective yearly CO2 emissions were reduced by 34% in 2020 compared to 2008.
The industry is facing transformational change to become green and more sustainable, whilst driving a positive customer service experience. Could technology be the solution?
