Promoting change

 

The retail sector is pivotal in driving the transition to a sustainable economy and influencing consumer behaviour. However, it also faces significant sustainability challenges, from carbon emissions in supply chains to waste management issues.

Retail operations account for approximately 10% of global carbon emissions, with the fashion industry alone responsible for 4-8%. As consumer demand for sustainable products grows, so does the need for retailers to adopt greener practices. By implementing energy-efficient technologies and sustainable sourcing, the retail sector can significantly reduce its environmental impact. In fact, studies show that incorporating these practices can cut carbon emissions by up to 30%. Despite these potential improvements, rapid and comprehensive changes are essential for the retail industry to meet global sustainability targets.
