Decarbonising the distribution of beer
Governments around the world now agree that the increase in global temperatures (above pre-industrial levels) must be limited to 2 °C by 2100 to keep the adverse effects of climate change within acceptable limits. This will entail a global reduction in CO2 emissions of 50 percent by 2050 (against 1990 levels), with developed countries cutting their emissions by around 80 percent. The World Economic Forum and Accenture [1] have estimated that logistics accounts for roughly 5.5 percent of global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. This GHG “footprint” may appear relatively modest, though, unlike that of most other sectors, it is expanding.
