How Will Proposed Changes in GHG Emission Guidelines Affect Your Supply Chain?
News about potential future guidelines to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions has all of us wondering how supply chain operations will be changing in the not-too-distant future.
First, the EPA made headlines with its proposed declaration that greenhouses gases represent a health danger. Then, last week U.S. Representatives Edward Markey (D-Mass.) and Henry Waxman (D-Calif.) introduced the American Clean Energy and Security Act of 2009, which if passed, would have a significant impact on basic supply chain, transportation, and logistics practices.
If you’re starting to think about how your supply chain is going to respond to new legislation like this (and I hope you are), take a minute to check out Logistics Management for Jeff Berman’s latest article, “Green Logistics: Proposed Changes in Emissions Reduction Could Have Lasting Effect on Supply Chain Operations.”
