In order to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from transportation services, a paper wholesaler and a relocation company implemented the transportation industry solution developed by myclimate and Dr. Prof. Wittenbrink. The framework includes the following modules: carbon assessment, energy efficiency, analyses of the fleet and the logistic processes, employee training and awareness raising, annual environmental performance management. The performed analyses helped to identify room for improvements. Both companies have taken measures and are on the way to reduce their carbon footprint. As one of the companies started to replace diesel with biodiesel, the framework was extended by the aggregated environmental impact expressed in ReCiPe endpoints. This method was chosen to demonstrate possible negative side effects associated with the use of some biofuels.
