- The logistics sector faces ESG-driven risks in 2025, with climate events and labor conditions reshaping investment strategies and supply chain resilience.
- Climate disruptions cost $560–610B annually by 2035, prompting innovations like Maersk’s methanol vessels and AI-driven predictive modeling to mitigate impacts.
