* It is difficult for e-commerce and consumers to navigate a market that actively misleads and greenwashes. Consumers may see emission free and carbon neutral deliveries – but is this really solving the problem with congestion?
* We need to accelerate the sustainability agenda in logistics and incentivise genuine responsibility – this is for Governments to lead. There are many opportunities for businesses to understand how they can build truly sustainable businesses - share case studies
