SUMMARY:Greening Your Freight Moves
DESCRIPTION:EDF+Business is proud to present the Greening the Global Shopping Cart webinar series. \nA webinar with Jason Mathers\, EDF. \nEvery product has a freight journey to from factory to the store shelf. The combined impact of these trips is enormous: retailers spend over $20 billion a year on fuel alone to truck products. Over 300 million tons of carbon pollution are emitted to bring goods to market. Retailers and their suppliers can cut costs and emissions by adopting green freight practices. Join EDF to hear how leaders are leveraging the Five Principles for Greener Freight to create business value; and learn how to launch your own green freight journey.
