GREEN LOGISTICS: REDUCING CARBON FOOTPRINT IN SUPPLY CHAINS

Abstract

The growing global concern over climate change and environmental degradation has pushed industries to reevaluate their logistics and supply chain practices. Green logistics has emerged as a critical approach to minimize the environmental impact of transportation, warehousing, and distribution systems while maintaining operational efficiency. This study explores the principles, strategies, and outcomes of adopting green logistics to reduce the carbon footprint in supply chains. It emphasizes the integration of sustainable technologies, renewable energy, and eco-friendly materials to create a balance between economic growth and environmental stewardship.
