Presentation

Decarbonization pathways for logistics

The postal industry and logistics businesses across the supply chain are each responsible for significant greenhouse gas contributions. IT has the potential to positively impact 15% of global emissions (World Economic Forum, 2021), and will be critical to global achievement of the Paris agreement and UN Sustainable Development Goals. Atos, a worldwide leader in sustainable IT, enables the postal industry to define and achieve sustainability goals with diverse technologies, in combination with world leading consulting and nature-based solutions. This presentation will illustrate how a pathway to Net-Zero can transform companies and make them climate resilient, while driving progress.
