Invest in the future with SAP Product Footprint Management for Clean Operations
Sustainability is becoming increasingly important
The UN’s Sustainable Development Goals are a joint plan for the entire world to achieve sustainable development. To achieve this goal, everyone must contribute. Sustainable development is about more than just reducing the footprint – it is also about creating business development and new business opportunities. In a report from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), it appears that all corners of the world have had their climate changed as a result of emissions. The largest emissions come from human production of carbon dioxide through fossil fuels. Sustainability is therefore becoming more and more important, and new rules are constantly being introduced. The EU’s green growth strategy (Green Deal) is a new reform to ensure a holistic approach across policy areas and sectors to further integrate sustainability. The strategy facilitates the world to be climate neutral by 2050.
