Abstract
This paper uses current business practices to explore ways to reduce carbon footprints. It starts?with the importance of sustainability, implementation challenges, and tech solutions. The article presents real-world scenarios through company case studies of Google, IKEA, and Tesla which demonstrate practical implementations such as electric vehicle systems alongside renewable energy solutions and circular economic policy measures. This discussion investigates the policy effects as well as social and economic effects combined with business practices. The research presents critical insights and proven approaches that organizations need when they aim to reduce their carbon emissions while joining the international climate change advocacy movement.
