The emissions associated with the use of cars will always form part of the carbon footprint of the automotive industry. However, sustainable R&D, circular economy practices, and embedded environmental practices throughout a company can have beneficial impacts to limit CO2 emissions.
Business processes throughout the automotive supply chain are also the cause of emissions within the industry. Low carbon solutions can be implemented through procurement to sales dealerships, creating planet and societal friendly operations.

The industry is under scrutiny, so committing to a respected and rigorous certification process gives confidence to customers, investors and internal stakeholders alike.
