As we look to adding elements for product carbon footprint and emissions to support the contemporary ESG requirements for UBL 2.4 it would be good to consider ESG holistically for UBL 2.5.

Incorporating ESG data as part of the regular creation and sharing of supply chain documentation could reduce the burden of ESG data collection, reporting and aid in the governance of supply chain operations.
