Green Supply Chain Network for Sustainable Inventory Management

Description

Nowadays, the issue of the environment is incredibly important, primarily to reduce the effect of global warming. However, the increasing rate of carbon emission due to industrialization is one of the causes of the global warming.

In this scenario, the green supply chain management presents an opportunity to enhance environmental sustainability with less waste and more biodegradability. The idea of green supply chain management is to increase the environmental sustainability, which can be recognized by corporate social responsibility, green manufacturing, waste reduction, recycling, and remanufacturing. Protection from environmental degradation is a current concern for many governments, and thus industries are more entwined than ever in the issue of sustainability, hence the economic benefits of this should be beneficial for society, along with not hampering the environmental balance.

As environmental sustainability becomes increasingly crucial for industry, the aim of this Special Issue is the combination of industry with sustainable supply chain management. Both original research and review articles with the objective of improvement of the inventory, production, supply chain management, and logistics system in a sustainable manner under the surveillance of green supply channels are welcomed.

Potential topics include but are not limited to the following:

  • Sustainable supply chain management
  • End-of-life products
  • Environmental factors of green supply chain management
  • Logistics, inventory management, and waste management and recycling for green manufacturing
  • Green products marketing
  • Corporate social responsibility and reliability
  • Nonlinear optimization for green supply chain networks
  • Cap and trade policy
