Green Biz - Ford Motor Company is asking for energy use and greenhouse gas emissions data from 35 of its top global suppliers to better understand its supply chain's footprint and begin sharing practices. The suppliers represent about 30 percent of Ford's $65 billion in annual procurement spending and make seats, steering systems, tires, metal parts and other products. In gathering energy and emissions information, Ford plans to share practices and processes that result in significant emissions reductions and eventually create a carbon management approach for its entire supply chain.
