The CCWG Scorecard data for each carrier include carrier-specific CO2
emissions factors for each of the 25 trade lanes as well as a number of other
sustainability factors. CCWG members also receive an annual benchmarking
comparison tool showing the performance of all participating carriers.

future improvements.
Some companies use carrier CO2 comparisons solely for internal purposes, or
use rankings in carrier dialogues and performance appraisals. Companies also
use these data to define good performance. One approach is a scorecard that
allocates points for CO2 performance compared to the trade lane averages.
Shippers may also recognize verified data with higher points, as shown below.

Select Suppliers Using Sustainability Criteria
Based on this information, some companies may choose to take the final step
toward CO2 improvements in their ocean transportation supply chains by
integrating CO2 performance data as part of their supplier selection processes.
Doing this effectively, however, is a challenge that most companies have yet to
perfect. Companies are starting to experiment with ways that CO2 and other
