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.

SUMMARY:Climate Smart Ag
DESCRIPTION:EDF+Business is proud to present the Greening the Global Shopping Cart webinar series. \nA webinar with Jenny Ahlen\, EDF. \nGlobally\, agriculture is responsible for one-third of greenhouse gas emissions. Excess use of nitrogen fertilizer produces a greenhouse gas 300x more powerful than CO2\, and an estimated $412m in fertilizer runs off into streams and rivers each year as pollution. At the same time\, raising sheep\, cattle\, chickens and hogs is responsible for 18% of all GHGs—more than the combined exhaust from all transportation. Jenny Ahlen\, EDF\, will give a high-level overview of best practices\, strategies\, programs and collaborations that companies can take advantage of in pursuit of their Project Gigaton goal.

SUMMARY:Halting Deforestation
DESCRIPTION:EDF+Business is proud to present the Greening the Global Shopping Cart webinar series. \nA webinar with Katie Anderson\, EDF. \nDeforestation is a huge driver of greenhouse gas emissions globally\, with just four commodities—beef\, soy\, palm oil and pulp and paper—accounting for about 1.7 gigatons of emissions each year. Many organizations and companies have set deforestation commitments\, but we are still seeing increases in deforestation. What is causing this discrepancy and how can NGOs\, governments and companies collaborate to see real impact at scale? Katie Anderson\, EDF\, will review the opportunities associated with collective action around jurisdictional approaches for beef and soy in Brazil and give companies a helpful path forward for engagement.
