Sustainability strategies

To recommend sustainability strategies for an industry or sector , let us apply the concept in Logistics/Transportation Sector . Every business needs to prioritize. For corporate responsibility and sustainability professionals, a strategy sets out the priorities. It provides an agreed framework for deploying resources, creating an impact and communicating results.

Why ?

The distribution of products affects the local air quality, induces noise and disturbance, induces injuries and contributes significantly to global warming. Logistics has become particularly worried about the consequences of climate change in recent years , in part because of stricter emissions regulations and

Improvements in public safety have mitigated the other Problems, but also since modern study has proven
Global warming is a far larger and near threat
As considered then. Freight transport is estimated to account for approximately 8% of CO2 pollution from electricity around the planet

Time frames,

The time frame depends on the method of creating realistic proposals and tactics to guarantee a project's long-term survival. The emphasis of attention is on a range of tools and competences required for the project's implementation – global, political, logistical, strategic, educational, cultural , social and economic.

Likely effectiveness

The effectiveness depends on the adoption of the following strategies -

1. Strategic Restructuring of logistics systems and supply chains

2.Transferring freight to ‘greener’ transport modes

3.Reducing the environmental impact of warehousing

4. Adoption of urban consolidation centres (UCCs)

Costs.

A number of Fixed Costs, Sunk Costs, Entry Barriers exisit in the path of adoption of hte plan.

potentially high set-up costs (and sometimes high operating costs)

The potential transport and environmental benefits of UCCs have to be weighed against the potential costs associated with consolidation that can include:
•• capital and operating costs of UCCs;
•• an additional handling stage in the supply chain;
•• security, liability and customer service issues associated with additional
companies handling goods.

4. Post great financial crisis Central banks, all across the world have started to adopt proactive monetary policy in order to estimate the the cycles of economy so that their monetary policy can forecast the economic direction and they could formulate the economic policy in advance so that they can help themselves avoid the risk of recession and maintain the financial stability all across the economy.

Financial crisis can also be attributed to a lot of mishandling of monetary policy by the central bank's so that led to a widespread global financial crisis and after the financial crisis there has been change in the approach of how the global Central Bank started to work as they have been adopting all the monetary tools and they have been continuously reviewing their monetary policy at constant intervals and those monetary policy are just not in synchronisation with the current economic policy but they are also estimating the future economy so they are proactively trying to discount any kind of economic adversity and they are preparing the monetary policy in accordance with those changes in economy and it can be said that Central Bank all across the world have become more conscious and more forecasting along with they have been more supportive and they have provided liberalized policies in order to support the economy and stimulate the economy growth so that they can help the economy in order to survive and sustain through economic adversities.

The recent example can be derived when the Federal Reserve in 2020 after expectation of an impending recession but its interest rate to almost the negative zones because it felt that it needed to stimulate the economy in advance as there was a high risk due to the pandemic of coronavirus which was adversely impacting the growth of the economy so federal reserve cut the interest rate to stimulate the demand in economy and adopting quantitative easing monetary policy and rest of the central bank all across the globe followed the suit.
