Are CEOs doing enough to create a corporate circularity culture?
CALGARY: CEOs must take a leadership role by demanding support for a Circular Economy as part of their Corporate DNA.
Most scientists now believe Climate Change is a real threat to the long- term viability of the human species.
A first step is asking for the carbon footprint of the services or products your firm is buying, stated Kim Caron CEO Executive Mat Group of Companies.
Setting clear goals to reduce the carbon intensity across a firm’s procurement portfolio must first be initiated and supported by leadership.
Partnering with vendors that are tackling sustainability issues needs to be a fundamental aspect of a corporations “Climate Crisis” action plan.
“Implementing proper tracking and reporting protocols will be essential if are going to achieve our Climate Change commitments,” Caron states.
Executive Mat Service, as part of their Climate Crisis Action Plan has initiated a reporting system called the “1-billion lbs. CO2 objective.”
