Fleets will ultimately bear the brunt of efforts to reduce trucking’s impact on the climate crisis. And at the third and final Roundtable Discussion at the Advanced Clean Transportation Expo on May 11 in Long Beach, California, four fleets discussed how they’ve tackled the sustainability challenge — and the long road still ahead.
The moderator was Erik Neandross, CEO of Gladstein, Neandross & Associates, the green-transportation consulting company behind ACT Expo. The panel consisted of:
- Craig Harper, chief sustainability officer, J.B. Hunt
- Ari Silkey, general manager, North American Surface Transportation, Amazon
- Debbie Kalish, director enterprise sustainability and ESG Initiatives, American Tire Distributors
- Matt McLelland, vice president, sustainability and innovation, Covenant Logistics
