Green Logistics Strategies Measures And The Emerging Benefits For Companies In The Context Of Green Logistics

Bachelor Thesis from the year 2014 in the subject Business economics - Supply, Production, Logistics, grade: 1,0, Fachhochschule Salzburg, language: English, abstract: With the help of this bachelor thesis, the development from logistics to green logistics is presented. Furthermore, the differences in the objectives are shown. Based on the work, it is illustrated whether the entrepreneurs are aware of the current environmental situation. Furthermore, measures are addressed that can be implemented in the companies. These measures are intended to increase transport efficiency in the long term and provide guidance on how to make logistics more environmentally friendly. Globalization and the increasing number of transports have a negative impact on the environment. The environmental impact results primarily from the CO2 emissions caused in the process. However, the results also show that companies are willing to make their supply chain "greener" and take action accordingly. In the literature, some reasons are given why the implementation of green logistics is inevitable. As a conclusion, it can be seen that green logistics will play an important role in the future, as companies themselves want to act more sustainably.
