Blendly.co.uk Food security technology Helping you move to Net Zero

According to Sodexo research conducted in November 2021, 62% of suppliers had already made a commitment to achieve net zero by 2050 or sooner, while 20% did not have a carbon reduction plan in place.

Suppliers represent 75% of the company’s supply chain emissions and the partners have received a roadmap detailing Sodexo’s sustainability requirements, including the 2030 deadline.

Sodexo is first requiring suppliers to provide a detailed annual carbon reduction plan identifying opportunities for collaboration and areas of improvement, while also reporting on scope 1 and 2 emissions at the minimum.

This evolving worldview is driving policy changes, particularly in the realm of the low-carbon economy. The transition towards a low-carbon economy is bringing about changes for individuals and companies at an ever-increasing pace. Simultaneously, we’re witnessing a surge in government regulations aimed at facilitating the day-to-day management of this transformation.

According to the Economist Across the rich world, Governments are implementing more than ten times as many policies as they were each year in 2010 – 2015 If their Manifestos are anything to Go by, Politicians Plan a lot more in the coming years to achieve dominance in renewable energy, Electric Trasport and Generative AI this is the biggest policy shift in a generation 

As we navigate this transition, With the move towards decentralization, there is a concern that we might be losing out on the innovation needed to tackle these pressing global issues.

The Low Carbon Economy and Its Impact on Businesses: Navigating a Decentralized World

In recent years, the global conversation has been shifting from the advantages of globalization to the merits of a more decentralized world. Governments around the globe are looking inward, focusing on protectionism, job security, and the safeguarding of domestic production. High subsidies are being allocated, and growing threats to national security have prompted a reevaluation of priorities. Key areas such as energy, food, and health security are gaining prominence, along with the everyday effects on people and businesses, notably the cost of living crisis.

This evolving worldview is driving policy changes, particularly in the realm of the low-carbon economy. The transition towards a low-carbon economy is bringing about changes for individuals and companies at an ever-increasing pace. Simultaneously, we’re witnessing a surge in government regulations aimed at facilitating the day-to-day management of this transformation.

According to the Economist Across the rich world, Governments are implementing more than ten times as many policies as they were each year in 2010 – 2015 If their Manifestos are anything to Go by, Politicians Plan a lot more in the coming years to achieve dominance in renewable energy, Electric Trasport and Generative AI this is the biggest policy shift in a generation 

As we navigate this transition, With the move towards decentralization, there is a concern that we might be losing out on the innovation needed to tackle these pressing global issues.
