WWL cuts greenhouse emissions
Wallenius Wilhelmsen Logistics (WWL) managed to cut its greenhouse gas emissions by 32% last year.
The company also cut its sulphur dioxide emissions (SO2) emissions by 135,000 tonnes in a nine year period from 2000 to 2009. This cut is nearly equal to all the SO2 emissions from road vehicles in the US over a year.
“Even in times of global economic crisis, we must continue to build value for our customers,” said Arild B Iversen, chief executive of WWL, who added an efficient supply chain will cut costs while benefitting the environment.
