#TransportationTechnology, supported by necessary infrastructure & rapid innovations in #ElectricVehicles & renewable fuel sources, will surely accelerate us towards a Net-Zero future.

[Akanksha Sharma @akankshatweets_]

Agreed! We need a multi-dimensional approach that factors in sustainability around every element comprising #transportation networks.

[Akanksha Sharma @akankshatweets_]

Transport accounts for around one-fifth of global CO₂ emissions.

Thankfully, the transportation network is being reimagined through new technologies that will #ReduceEmissions & help manage climate change better.

Which technology do you think will impact the most? #Transport

[Akanksha Sharma @akankshatweets_]

An internationally agreed #CarbonTax could reduce global #GHGemissions by 12%. Implementing it efficiently will lead to #EnvironmentalBenefits as well as fiscal gains.

Which benefit of Carbon Tax do you think is most crucial?

[Akanksha Sharma @akankshatweets_]

Its potential benefits are truly fascinating: $1.3 trillion in economic value & 7.5 Gt CO2 emissions reduction by 2030.

#AcceleratingSustainability

[Akanksha Sharma @akankshatweets_]

Out of all the emerging sustainable tech, #VirtualTwins is perhaps the most exciting. It provides safe testing environments for radically disruptive green & circular innovation and can accelerate us towards a more #circular & low carbon future.

What steps do you think need to be implemented on priority to achieve #GenderEquality?

[Akanksha Sharma @akankshatweets_]

Women account for nearly half the world’s workforce. If they do not achieve their full potential, the #GlobalEconomy will suffer.

Public, private, & social sectors need to collaborate and #BridgeGenderGaps at the workplace & in society.

[Akanksha Sharma @akankshatweets_]

ESG-related risks account for nearly all of the world’s #TopRisks in terms of impact and likelihood. Assessing & managing them is of utmost importance.

According to you, which of the following approaches can help improve #ESGRiskManagement? #ESG

[Akanksha Sharma @akankshatweets_]

#Blockhain technology can help developing countries strategically diversify their economies and ensure more efficient resource distribution across supply chains.

If implemented correctly, it will power sustainable development & accelerate progress towards the #SDGs. #MyTake

[Akanksha Sharma @akankshatweets_]

Transport accounts for around one-fifth of global CO₂ emissions.

Thankfully, the transportation network is being reimagined through new technologies that will #ReduceEmissions & help manage climate change better.

Which technology do you think will impact the most? #Transport

Investing in our planet will bring the best returns, both humanitarian & economic. #EarthDay

[Akanksha Sharma @akankshatweets_]

It’s time to develop new, insight-based sourcing strategies & plans to #LowerEmissions more efficiently.

[Akanksha Sharma @akankshatweets_]

#SustainableSourcing efforts are often hampered by a shortage of green resources and data on emissions along an organization's value chain.

Companies need to build new capabilities that go beyond #SupplyChainManagement to address this issue.

[Akanksha Sharma @akankshatweets_]

zero waste to landfills, gender equality, and several more; all of which are at the heart of everything we do!

At @STL_tech, we are driving several initiatives aligned with the UN #SDGs. Goals like water positivity,

[Akanksha Sharma @akankshatweets_]

This makes the mission to achieve #NetZero GHG emissions even more important. Innovative policies, infrastructure & technology need to be implemented soon along with drastic lifestyle changes.

#ClimateChange

[Akanksha Sharma @akankshatweets_]

It’s now or never—the new #IPCC report has warned that even if all policies to cut carbon emissions are implemented, the world will still warm by 3.2C in this century, the results of which can be catastrophic.
