Txhua xyoo, $ 400 txhiab daus las xaus rau hauv cov khoom pov tseg, thiab vim tias nws txiav rau hauv cov txiaj ntsig kev lag luam, cov tuam txhab tuaj yeem kho nws raws li kev txiav se tawm.
When Kroger, Asmeskas lub khw muag khoom loj tshaj plaws, tau cog lus tseg plaub xyoos dhau los txhawm rau tshem tawm cov khoom pov tseg los ntawm 2025, cov saw hlau CEO hu ua lub hom phiaj yog "moonshot."
Kroger CEO Rodney McMullen tau hais tias "Peb ntseeg tias los ntawm kev ua haujlwm nrog lwm tus peb tuaj yeem muaj nws kom tsis muaj leej twg mus pw tshaib plab," Kroger CEO Rodney McMullen tau hais.
Lub tuam txhab yog ntxias mus rau lub hom phiaj.
Ntau npaum li 40% ntawm tag nrho cov zaub mov hauv Asmeskas xaus li khib nyiab. Qhov ntawd yog ntau tshaj 100 billion phaus, muaj nqis tshaj $ 400 billion, txhua xyoo. Tsis tsuas yog nws txaj muag rau pov zaub mov thaum 38 lab tus neeg Asmeskas, suav nrog 12 lab tus menyuam yaus, mus tshaib plab, nws kuj tseem muaj kev pheej hmoo rau cov khw muag khoom noj. Ntawm Kroger, cov khoom noj khib nyiab sawv cev rau kwv yees li 4% ntawm 2,800-kho cov saw hlau ze li $ 140 nphom hauv kev muag khoom txhua xyoo, lossis kwv yees li $ 5.6 billion. Qhov ntawd yog rau kev lag luam uas nquag ua haujlwm kom txo tau nws. Qee lub khw muag khoom muaj cov khoom noj khoom haus txhua xyoo, lossis "qis," ntawm 5% mus rau 7%. Cov uas ntaus ob tus lej feem ntau tsuas muaj sia nyob ntev txaus kom tau dov los yog poob nyiaj.
Txawm li cas los xij, muaj lub zog tsis txaus ntseeg los txhim kho thiab tshem tawm qhov teeb meem. Txij li thaum pov tawm cov khoom noj txiav rau hauv cov nyiaj tau los ntawm cov tuam txhab, Internal Revenue Service muab faib ua se txiav tawm. Nws tsis paub meej tias qhov feem pua ntawm kev txiav tawm muaj feem cuam tshuam nrog cov khoom pov tseg, lossis cov tuam txhab lag luam loj npaum li cas thov, vim tias daim duab tsis tau tawg ua ke. Tab sis qhov ntawd yog li cas cov neeg them se xaus rau daim nqi rau cov khoom noj uas cua tuaj rau hauv lub pov tseg.
"Tsoomfwv pab txhawb rau tus nqi," said James McCann, tus thawj coj ntawm cov khw muag khoom noj Tesco, Carrefour thiab Ahold USA, uas tau tsim cov tuam txhab lag luam muag khoom noj khoom haus. "Qhov tseem ceeb, tus nqi ntawm kev poob qis yog txiav se tawm vim tias nws txo cov txiaj ntsig ntawm txhua lub tuam txhab tus nqi se marginal."
Qee lub tebchaws thoob plaws ntiaj teb tau sim txhawb cov khw muag khoom kom txo cov khoom noj pov tseg los ntawm kev ua cov khoom ntawm cov khoom tsis muaj se-deductible, uas, raws li McCann hais tias, "Yog tias koj yog ib tus neeg muag khoom, nws muaj txiaj ntsig zoo."
McCann hais tias "Qhov mob tau ntau dua, thiab yog li kev xav tau kev daws teeb meem yuav loj dua," McCann hais.
Qhov nruab nrab cov khw muag khoom noj hauv Teb Chaws Asmeskas yog kwv yees rau cov thoob khib nyiab ntawm $ 5,000 thiab $ 10,000 ib lub lim tiam ntawm cov khoom noj.
Txog rau tam sim no, feem ntau cov khw muag khoom noj thiab cov chaw muab khoom noj tsis paub tias lawv tau pov tseg ntau npaum li cas. Txawm tias tsis muaj txiaj ntsig dab tsi cuam tshuam rau lub kaw lus yuav raug them los ntawm cov neeg yuav khoom, McCann hais tias: "Nws tau them rau tus nqi uas cov neeg siv khoom them."
Cov ntawv sau se tsis muaj kab khoom rau cov khoom pov tseg. Los ntawm kev txheeb xyuas nyiaj txiag, nws suav tias yog qhov cuam tshuam rau lub tuam txhab cov nyiaj tau los thiab cov lus poob. Khoom noj khoom haus tsim nyog raws li cov khoom muaj nqis vim tias cov khoom xyaw yog raw khoom. Txoj kev uas nws tau sau tseg, muaj tus nqi khoom noj rau txhua lub sijhawm sau nyiaj. Tus nqi khoom noj ntawd yog nyob ntawm qhov seem ntawm cov khoom muag thiab cov khoom noj tau siv ntau npaum li cas. Qhov ntawd yog tus nqi txiav tawm ntawm cov khoom muag raws li tau noj.
Andrew Shakman, CEO thiab cofounder ntawm LeanPath hais tias, "Nws yog qhov tsis meej, yog tias koj ua raws li cov nyiaj tau los," hais tias Andrew Shakman, CEO thiab cofounder ntawm LeanPath, uas tsom mus rau cov khoom pov tseg hauv tsev noj mov thiab kev lag luam khoom noj. “Tsis muaj qhov twg hauv cov zaub mov pov tseg ib yam khoom tsis sib xws. Nws ntog tawm raws li kev kho cov khoom muag. Txawm hais tias cov khoom noj ntawd tau siv thiab mus rau cov neeg siv khoom lossis siv thiab mus rau cov khib nyiab tsis yog ib yam uas koj yuav pom. "
Shankman hais tias nws tau pioneer kev ntsuas cov khoom pov tseg. Nws lub platform siv cov ntaub ntawv los txiav cov khoom pov tseg ntawm cov neeg siv khoom noj ua ntej los ntawm ib nrab lossis ntau dua, uas "ua rau cov nyiaj tseem ceeb rov qab rau hauv kab hauv qab." Nws tau muab tso ua haujlwm hauv chav ua noj thoob plaws 40 lub tebchaws.
Hauv xyoo 2021, ntau dua $ 2 nphom nyiaj tau nqis peev hauv cov khoom noj pov tseg "kev daws teeb meem," raws li tau taug qab los ntawm pab pawg txhawb nqa Refed. Qhov ntawd yog qhov nyiaj tshaj plaws puas tau mob siab rau qhov teeb meem hauv txhua xyoo uas Refed tau taug qab cov ntaub ntawv.
Kuj tseem muaj tus nqi ib puag ncig rau cov khoom noj pov tseg. Xa nws mus rau qhov chaw pov tseg tsim methane, lub tsev cog khoom muaj zog, uas ua rau muaj ntau dua emissions uas yog cua sov lub ntiaj teb. EPA kwv yees tias txhua xyoo, Asmeskas cov zaub mov poob thiab pov tseg yog lub luag haujlwm rau 170 lab metric tons ntawm carbon dioxide sib npaug ntawm cov pa roj carbon dioxide emissions, uas yog sib npaug rau txhua xyoo carbon dioxide emissions ntawm 42 thee-fired fais fab nroj tsuag. Thoob plaws ntiaj teb, cov zaub mov pov tseg suav txog 8% ntawm tag nrho cov pa roj carbon monoxide emissions.
Yog tias lub khw muag khoom noj lossis chaw muag khoom noj pub zaub mov khib nyiab thiab taug qab nws, lub lag luam kuj tuaj yeem thov rau cov nyiaj pab them se uas ua rau ob npaug ntawm cov nyiaj txiav se.
Tseem, ntau lub tuam txhab tsis siv qhov kev txo qis, hais tias Dana Gunders, tus thawj coj ntawm Refed. Nws nyuaj heev, thiab muaj lwm cov qhab nia uas yooj yim dua kom tau txais txiaj ntsig zoo los ntawm.
Gunders hais tias "Cov kab hauv qab yog qhov tsis muaj txiaj ntsig los ntawm lawv lub tswv yim ua se los siv qhov kev txo se ntxiv," Gunders hais. Thiab thaum nws tsis paub meej tias muaj pes tsawg lub lag luam tau txais txiaj ntsig los ntawm cov nyiaj pab, lossis ntau npaum li cas cov se tau thov kom raug txo los ntawm nws, Gunders hais tias, "Nws yog undersubscribed rau qhov koj xav tau."
Cov qhab nia se, raws li Gunders, "tsis yog qhov ua rau muaj nyiaj pub dawb."
