Taken together, this means that supply chains are in a position to accelerate their journey to becoming cleaner and ‘greener’. That’s good news for everyone – and a lesson for other industries grappling with the transition to net zero.

We’re all familiar with the copper wire telephone network: in use since 1876, it’s kept business communications going for years. Since its invention, the public switch telephone network (PSTN) has seen a lot of changes: it's gone from manual switching, which required a human operator, to electronic switching; from just simple copper wires to fibre cables and cellular networks.
