Examples of low carbon operations practices adopted by the studied companies

Operational practices of low carbon management	Alpha	Beta	Gamma	Delta	Sigma	Omega	Theta
Products/services	–	Provision of services for energy efficiency	Reduction of weight of packaging	Provision of new products with better carbon-efficiency	–	–	Production of biodiesel
Processes	Change in land use	Use of biomass for energy generation	Replacement of fuel to generate its energy	–	Control of deforestation in the Amazon Biome	Improvements in the structures of chillers	Generation of its own energy
	Exchange of fuel to generate its own energy	Investment in solar and wind energy	Cold manufacturing–milk		Control of deforestation in the Amazon Biome	Improvements in the structures of chillers	Generation of its own energy
	Exchange of fuel to generate its own energy	Replacement of oil in electrical transformers	Replacement of gas-powered lift trucks per outlet		Generation of its own energy	Exchange of fluorescent lights by LED	Change in land use
Logistics	Standardization of trucks	Use of electric cars in operation	Replacement of vehicles (trucks for vans)	Reduction in the number of trips to transport raw materials	–	Software for optimizing routes	Replacement of modes of transport (road by rail)
			Maintenance of vehicles			Trade in vehicles (trucks for road-train)
			Trackers and software for definition of routes			Exchange of modes of transport (road by rail)
