Popis: | The supply chains of large organizations contain a high proportion of the total greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions associated with products and services. This has implications for climate mitigation and the sustainability strategies of “focal” firms that lead and control supply chains. This research explores the objectives and activities involved in managing supply chain GHG emissions, and how these impact underlying business models and sustainable value creation opportunities.An exploratory qualitative approach is undertaken, involving interviews with 31 expert informants, through two phases. Of interviewees, 20 are from focal organizations in the public or private sectors. This data is coded to identify specific supply chain GHG emission management activities and, separately, the objectives they fulfil. Matrices are used to link activities with the different supply chain GHG emission management objectives. |
