Breaking Bottlenecks

The complex web of global trade and supply chain logistics practically hums with technical innovation. But sometimes, something as simple as a suburban stoplight, a prairie snowstorm, or traffic congestion can threaten to bring the entire global system to a standstill, creating what industry insiders commonly call a “bottleneck.” In this new podcast series, we’ll break these bottlenecks open by exploring the intricacies, infrastructure and innovations that connect Canada’s businesses and communities with the world, as seen through the inner workings of the Port of Vancouver, Canada’s largest port, and those who rely on it.

    The Ultimate Bottleneck: Climate Change

    It’s a challenge so immense, it really does require an “all hands on-deck” approach: climate change. By the year 2050, extreme weather events exacerbated by our warming world are expected to cost the economy almost 140-billion dollars in Canada alone. On this episode of Breaking Bottlenecks, brought to you by the Vancouver-Fraser Port Authority, host Aaron Chapman tackles one of the most pressing issues of our time, in an eye-opening look at what the port and its partners are doing to engage with the crisis head-on. You’ll hear how weather events like historic heat and record-shattering storms are driving innovation along all parts of the supply chain, forcing companies to adapt their operations, in real-time, to keep the flow of goods moving and the economy chugging along. Aaron will also explore what those same companies are doing to mitigate potentially bigger challenges in the future by reducing their emissions and embracing sustainability today. Featuring interviews and commentary from: Chantale Després, former assistant vice-president of sustainability at CN Rail.Heather Wood, director of sustainability - North America for CMA CGM.Ronan Chester, director of climate action and sustainability leadership at the Vancouver-Fraser Port Authority.
