A precise tracking of resources sensitive to climate variations allows for optimizing their use and reducing dependence on vulnerable resources.​

6. Develop innovative collaborations with suppliers​

Partnerships with suppliers allow for co-creating solutions that anticipate future constraints related to climate change.​
