The Struggle for Net-Zero


Achieving net-zero emissions is a daunting challenge for many large companies. Despite setting ambitious climate goals, businesses often find themselves hindered by high costs, slow technological advancements, and political pressures. This blog post explores these challenges and introduces Sustain360°™, a ground breaking platform designed to empower enterprises in their fight against carbon emissions.

The Current Landscape

According to a recent Wall Street Journal article, the world’s largest companies have committed to slashing their emissions to address climate change, but many are struggling to meet their short-term climate goals while still maintaining their long-term targets. This is due to a number of factors, including higher costs, slow advances in technology, and political pressure.

What does this mean for the planet?

Some companies are backing off of their short-term climate goals, while others are continuing to invest in green technologies and renewable energy. Carbon credits, once considered a viable offsetting option, have shown limited benefits. Governments, too, are falling short of their climate commitments. This is leading to more extreme weather events, rising sea levels, and other climate-related problems.

The Technology Gap

One of the main reasons companies fail to meet their climate goals is the lack of adequate technology. While investments have been made in software like ERP, PLM, CAD, and SCM, these applications are not designed for carbon reduction. Companies often resort to using Excel spreadsheets for manually inputting data to determine their ESG carbon footprint—a process that is time-consuming, error-prone, and ineffective.
