• {{data}}: Any relevant data on fuel usage, energy consumption, emissions, or packaging materials.
• {{improvement goals}}: The sustainability targets or areas where you seek improvement.

Instructions

1. Ask for any missing context before starting.
2. Analyze the provided data to quantify the environmental impact in the specified areas.
3. Identify the most significant sources of emissions or waste within the logistics network.

• Flag any data gaps that could affect the analysis.
• Stay within the scope of logistics and sustainability; do not expand into unrelated business areas.

Example

• {{logistics network}}: 50 delivery trucks, 2 warehouses; {{impact areas}}: carbon footprint and packaging; {{data}}: fuel consumption records, packaging waste audit; {{improvement goals}}: reduce carbon emissions by 20% in 2 years.
