Tuesday Jan. 13th
Carbon Efficient Supply Chains

Edgar Blanco
Research Associate, Center for Transportation and Logistics

Noon–1:30 pm
E51-145

In this presentation we will introduce the key challenges in determining the carbon footprint of supply chains. We will discuss how public-private partnerships could be used to overcome some of these challenges. We will use the EPA Smartway Program as an example of aligning multiple incentives to achieve transparency and collaboration within the supply chain.
