Our direct carbon footprint comes from the electricity we use to power our warehouses and the fuel we use to drive our trucks. We do our best to minimize our impact and drive innovation for improved environmental performance.
Sustainability
As environmental, social, labor and governance imperatives come into sharper focus, the business case (again) for putting sustainability at the core of a company’s strategy.
Businesses are greening their warehouses to lower costs and reduce resource in pursuit of zero-net energy (ZNE) even without the pressure of government regulations.
In 2020, Agility’s direct emissions increased an estimated 6% from 2019 levels. Efficiency initiatives to reduce electricity and fuel usage were offset by improvements in emissions reporting, which have increased the number of markets included in our carbon footprint, as well as investments in cold chain warehousing in the Middle East. In 2021, planned investments in solar PVs will become operational, and are expected to significantly reduce direct emissions.
