Nike’s Sustainability

Nike isn’t very well known for their sustainability when it comes to their products. It has been well documented whether it’s been poor labor environments or just over all consumption they have not done well in the past. Even on their site there is a graphic included which states, “56% of CO2 emissions across the value chain comes from the materials that go into our products.” This is not very promising that even they admit that. But I was curious if they had any plans for improvement, this is what I found. They basically just stated that they hoped to bring down emissions via their factories, retail facilities, transportation, and their headquarter facilities. Compared to Adidas, Nike definitely does not seem to have their environmental side figured out. I hope then intent to improve their overall approach to the environment.
