performances of
Supply chains. This research article also argues
that risks as well as opportunities are key drivers
for supply chain drivers for adapting
sustainability within the operations, and that
barriers to sustainability adoption still exist.

Introduction paragraph
Sustainable development requires that the aim of living and working enables that these should
lead people to enjoy a fulfilling as well as economically secure life. However, this should not

endanger the future welfare of the earth. This topic also encompasses that structural as well as
behavioural transformation is required in almost all spheres of life in order to resolve the most
pressing problems of the world. From the technological point of view, technological decisions
should come with underpinning the values that might make technology a resolute and resilient
future sustainable solution.
