What happens when you stop treating climate risk as a compliance headache, and start using it as a strategic tool?
In this episode of the Sustainable Supply Chain podcast, I sit down with Ollie Carpenter, Director of Environmental Risk Analytics at Risilience. Ollie helps major brands like Nestlé, Maersk, and Burberry stress-test their supply chains using digital twins, pinpointing how climate and nature-related risks will hit their bottom line.
Topics we cover:
• Scope 3 emissions and supply chain decarbonisation
• Physical vs transition risk, what’s changed in the last 5 years
• CSRD, TNFD, and the regulatory pressure on sustainability teams
• Why near-term action beats distant net-zero targets
• How climate stress-testing helps CFOs make better decisions
📍 Timestamps:
00:00 – Intro
02:12 – Why risk analytics matter for supply chains
05:45 – Physical vs transition risk explained
11:32 – Scope 3 and supplier engagement strategies
17:10 – Regulation, disclosure, and CSRD readiness
22:58 – Digital twins and climate scenario modelling
28:40 – The growing role of employees in climate action
32:00 – What success looks like in 5 years
