Recherchetool für Materialien Environmental Atlas: Supply chains The environmental impacts that arise in the international supply chains of companies are often many times higher than at their locations in Germany. Today, more than ever, companies are called upon to fulfil their social responsibility also in the supply chain. The "Environmental Atlas Supply Chains" by adelphi and Systain comprehensively describes for the first time how the production of German companies abroad affects the environment. The study examines the environmental impact of eight selected sectors in four key areas of environmental protection: Greenhouse gas emissions, air pollution, water consumption, land use. The atlas shows which environmental impacts occur at which point in the supply chains in which region of the world and how they can be minimized or completely avoided. This makes ‘hotspots’ visible to the sector concerned. Based on this, the Atlas presents solutions and instruments. Sectors: Clothing retail, Chemical industry, Electronics industry, Automotive industry, Air conditioning, Food retail, Mechanical engineering, Metal production and processing, Paper industry Scope: 48 pagesreference : free of charge for download back
