The urgency of addressing climate change has amplified the need for sustainable manufacturing practices. This review explores integration carbon footprint management and energy efficiency strategies within Industry 4.0 technologies ERP systems, emphasizing their role in achieving environmental sustainability. Despite increasing interest these domains, literature reveals critical gaps, particularly application technologies—such as IoT, big data analytics, AI—for effective manufacturing. Furthermore, limited exploration systems tracking, analyzing, optimizing emissions across supply chains highlights another under-researched area. paper systematically reviews recent advancements, methodologies, implementation challenges, categorizing findings under strategies, green chain management, digital transformation reduction. study identifies opportunities real-time monitoring, predictive cross-sector collaborations while obstacles such high initial costs, complexities, lack regulatory frameworks. By bridging research this contributes a comprehensive understanding how can transform providing actionable insights academia, policymakers, industry practitioners aiming to align with global sustainability goals.
