From sourcing, to manufacturing, to transportation, to consumption, it is only with visibility into every step of the supply chain that companies can improve their over- all sustainability.To give an example, Unilever has been doing some very promising work in this area utilizing geospatial analytics in its sourcing to predict the possibil- ity of issues, such as deforestation, and take action. Tetra Pak is bringing about this transparency in the food packaging and processing industry with its “Connected packages”. Launched in 2019 and currently exceeding 2 billion in number, they are each labeled with a unique digital barcode,effectively turning packages into data car- riers.This digitalization enables end-to-end traceability for producers, greater supply chain transparency for retail- ers, and access to information for consumers. The quickest way to optimize human health and en- vironmental sustainability is through agriculture and food. This new IPCC report puts added pressure on the food industry to meet the UN Sustainable Devel- opment Goals. Here’s hoping it will mobilize its many potential partnerships and innovation to reform and ultimately save our global food systems.
