At JAS Worldwide, we understand the critical role supply chain and logistics companies play in shaping the present and future of sustainable transportation. As the global community comes together to celebrate World Sustainable Transport Day, we are proud to share our commitment to helping reduce the industry's environmental footprint by providing customers with sustainable solutions when transporting goods.
Sustainable transport is more than a buzzword; it is a responsibility that the Transport and Logistics industry has, as it contributes significantly to the global carbon footprint. With the world facing challenges such as dwindling fossil fuel resources, climate change, and the resulting impact on various communities, the need for sustainable transport solutions has never been more critical. As a global logistics and supply chain provider, we recognize our responsibility to lead by example and contribute to more sustainable operations.
Our partnership with GoodShipping showcases our dedication to sustainable transport solutions. By providing clients with the option to inset sustainable marine biofuel, we empower them to make eco-conscious choices for their shipping needs. These biofuels are produced from renewable sources and have a significantly lower environmental impact than conventional options, making them a responsible and sustainable choice for ocean freight.
Another step we've taken in our journey towards sustainability is the incorporation of electric trucks into our fleet. Electric trucks such as the type JAS uses are known for their low emissions, energy efficiency, and reduced environmental impact, aligning seamlessly with our eco-conscious approach. In fact, when evaluating the entire Well-To-Wheel (WTW) cycle, an electric truck can achieve up to a 92% reduction in CO2 emissions compared to traditional diesel trucks, marking a significant step toward more sustainable operations.
Network optimization is another way we reduce transport emissions, for example by embedding rail and ocean transport into the supply chain wherever possible, choosing the most efficient route for each stage of the journey, and maximizing freight utilization thereby reducing the need for additional trips. We consult with our customers to make informed decisions based on their business priorities and help them track their progress in reducing their emissions.
Sustainability isn't just about implementing a single solution; it's about embracing a holistic approach. At JAS, we integrate sustainable practices into every aspect of our business, from our daily operations to the choices we make in selecting partners and suppliers who share our commitment to sustainability.
We continually look for new technologies and practices that will further reduce our carbon footprint and improve the well-being of our people and the communities where we operate. Our commitment to sustainability is not a one-time effort but an ongoing journey toward a more responsible future.
As we commemorate World Sustainable Transport Day, we invite our partners, clients, and the global community to join us in embracing sustainable transport solutions. We are excited about the journey ahead and are committed to further innovations that will make the world of logistics more sustainable. Happy World Sustainable Transport Day!
