AI-Driven Numerical Optimization for Carbon Footprint Reduction and Sustainable Supply Chain Management in the Fashion Industry

Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: This study explores how AI-driven optimization can help lower the carbon footprint of the fashion industry's supply chain. By using advanced AI models, the research delves into sustainable strategies across core areas—sourcing, production, logistics, and retail—focusing on reducing emissions, energy use, water consumption, and waste. Techniques like linear programming, genetic algorithms, and reinforcement learning showcase how AI can bring about real, measurable environmental benefits. The findings reveal that these optimized processes boost energy efficiency, save water, and cut down waste, making them valuable tools for sustainable supply chain management. The study wraps up with practical recommendations for adopting AI-based models to help the fashion industry embrace sustainability more effectively.
