"We believe Trucost's approach is a breakthrough that finally facilitates a cost-effective, fast and timely assessment of a corporation's supply chain environmental impact. The barriers to completing a supply-chain assessment have been substantial, preventing most corporations from taking this important step in understanding their total environmental impact."
