The sustainable agenda and energy efficiency: logistics solutions and supply chains in times of climate change

摘要

Contemporary logistics solutions and supply chain designs have been developed in an industrial context where sustainability of the natural environment and efficiency of the use of energy appear as part of traditional performance measures, for example costs and quality. Fuel price, for example, is internalized in "transportation costs". Acquisition of natural resources and the effects of their use are similarly often treated as "costs" and "quality" of materials.
