Once upon a time I was one of the naysayers and critics of Walmart. But the C-suite of Walmart is working on changing the way they do things. It is partly a wait and see but it is nice to see that such a massive cog in the world economy is making the effort.
I came across a blog entry on the Guardian that discusses how Walmart, along with Nike and Unilever are looking into changing the shipping industry. Shipping of products makes up 17.5% of U.S. transportation carbon dioxide emissions and this number is expected to increase. So it is nice to see that businesses are taking an interest in reducing these emissions.
Every little bit helps.
