SUMMARY:Tracking More than Gas Prices: The Benefits of Energy Tracking and Innovation in Logistics and Transporation 
DESCRIPTION:About\nIn the complicated world of logistics and transportation\, energy efficiency plays a major role in decision making and business performance. Energy considerations are also central to sustainability reporting for brands\, manufacturers\, and retailers. TSC has identified many product categories with a sustainability hotspot at the transportation stage between producer and retailers. This session will bring together experts from a logistics carrier\, a brand manufacturer\, and a biofuels company to discuss innovations\, technology\, and systems that help improve energy efficiency and reduce environmental impacts during transportation of products. \n\n\n\nSeries Times and Dates\n\n\nAbout the Achieving Your Sustainability Targets Webinar Series\nThe series will provide you with practical advice for how to make progress in a variety of areas including: Energy\, Deforestation\, Packaging\, Product Use\, Waste\, and Agriculture. These topics mirror Walmart’s Project Gigaton Pillars – each webinar will touch on issues of greenhouse gas emissions\, but will explore other ways to address and tackle sustainability challenges in each area.This free\, virtual series includes six 75-minute webinars from leaders in the sustainability industry. The webinars are best watched live to actively participate in the panel discussion and Q&A.

SUMMARY:Don’t Waste Your Time: How Increased attention to Waste Streams can Benefit your Business (and improve sustainability performance)
DESCRIPTION:About\nWhat do day-old-bread\, a dead car battery\, and bubble wrap with all the bubbles popped have in common? If you’re like most people\, you think of these objects as waste\, items that served a valuable purpose but no longer provide substantial benefits. In this webinar\, we will hear from industry leaders about methods\, practices\, and tools that enable their organizations to transform what was once perceived as waste into measurable benefits for their own operations\, customers\, and communities. This webinar will include practical steps to improving scores on TSC’s sustainability assessments but will also offer an inspirational look at companies and brands that are building long-term business value by re-examining and re-engineering waste streams. \n\n\n\nSeries Times and Dates\n\n\nAbout the Achieving Your Sustainability Targets Webinar Series\nThe series will provide you with practical advice for how to make progress in a variety of areas including: Energy\, Deforestation\, Packaging\, Product Use\, Waste\, and Agriculture.

SUMMARY:Decoding the Deforestation KPIs: The Business Benefits of Addressing Deforestation in Your Supply Chain
DESCRIPTION:About\nMany companies have pledged to achieve zero deforestation by 2020\, and TSC KPIs are one way to measure progress to meet this goal. TSC has several Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) that address the issue of deforestation across agriculture commodities\, including priority commodities such as beef\, soy\, palm oil\, and coffee\, as well as paper\, packaging\, and wood products. Join TSC staff and members to hear how companies collect data to respond to TSC’s deforestation and forest and palm oil certification KPIs. Experience TSC’s Commodity Mapping tool\, which demonstrates the main drivers of forest loss\, and learn how your company can use this information to understand the location of where deforestation is happening. Learn about how to get involved in collective action networks that are working to leverage corporate support to end deforestation in high-risk regions. \n\n\n\nSeries Times and Dates\n\n\nAbout the Achieving Your Sustainability Targets Webinar Series\nThe series will provide you with practical advice for how to make progress in a variety of areas including: Energy\, Deforestation\, Packaging\, Product Use\, Waste\, and Agriculture.

SUMMARY:Achieve Your Sustainability Targets: Deforestation
DESCRIPTION:Main Presenter: EDF and Pecuaria Sustentavel da Amazonia (Pecsa)\nPanelists: Arcos Dorados\, HSBC Bank \nAn emerging opportunity in reducing deforestation is in engaging jurisdictions across an entire landscape. Rather than going farm-by-farm to ensure sustainability—which is likely to lead to islands of “green” in a sea of deforestation—a jurisdictional approach allows companies to work with governments and NGOs to create entire regions that are improving along deforestation and productivity metrics. Join Environmental Defense Fund and their partner Pecuaria Sustentavel da Amazonia (Pecsa)\, a for-profit cattle ranching management and partnership firm\, to learn how to take a more holistic approach to tackle deforestation. \n\nSeries Schedule\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\nWebinars cannot be purchased separately. \n\nEvent Contact\nFor questions or comments please contact Jessica Ginger at jessica.ginger@sustainabilityconsortium.org
