With continuous and rapid change in both technology and businesses due to climate change and governments regulations, Green Supply Chain Management (GSCM) is receiving increasing attentions during last two decades. GSCM refers to the abilities of businesses to enhance operations and sustain environment at the same time and efficiently. In this paper, a comprehensive review of GSCM development and applications is conducted. This review aims to explore the recent developments of GSCM and necessity of adoption GSCM applications in businesses to insure sustainable development. First, a descriptive analysis of 796 paper adopted from Scopus database was conducted to review research on GSCM. Next, a bibliometric analysis of 235 paper was conducted to determine the recent trends and areas of GSCM and related keywords by using VOSviewer software. Then, a content analysis was carried out of 53 review papers by adopting WordStat software to analyze the impact of GSCM on related subjects and trends of GSCM. Finally, a summary analysis of GSCM advantages and challenges was conducted based on fundamental GSCM’s objectives. Results reveal that researches on GSCM are in upward curve with limitations in implementing GSCM applications due to high cost, and lack of sufficient experiences. Results also reveal positive moderate correlation of GSCM with environment, performance, sustainability and management practices indicating the limited implementation of GSCM applications. To further explore these limitations, this study summarized the recent challenges and future potential directions of GSCM in both businesses and environments.

Background: With the advent of the technological revolution, digitalization and automation is expected to restructure the landscape of manufacturing operations. Blockchain technology (BCT) is likely to foster information sharing and transparency and facilitate collaboration on green issues in supply chain among firms. This quantitative research investigates the role of BCT in Green Supply Chain Management (GSCM) practices and its’ effect on various performances, including economic and social performance. Method: The data was gathered from 223 firms by utilizing a survey questionnaire, and PLS-SEM was employed to analyze the hypotheses. Results: The findings showed that BCT has a key role in the implementation of GSCM practices (comprising green purchasing and green manufacturing). The outcomes also elucidated that green manufacturing is positively associated with economic and social performance. Whereas, green purchasing is negatively correlated with economic performance and has an insignificant effect on social performance. Moreover, government support (GS) moderates the link between BCT and GSCM practices (including green purchasing and green manufacturing). Conclusion: This research provided ample understanding about the role of BCT in implementing GSCM practices. The findings suggested that government bodies need to provide interest free loans and tax exemption to effectively implement GSCM practices.

Background: Green supply chain management (GSCM) practices are vital to environmental protection. Many large-scale companies claim that GSCM applications are implemented in their business (with ISO 14001 documents, advertisements, etc.). The purpose of this study is to reveal the relationships between GSCM applications and the operational, environmental, and financial performance of the business. In addition, GSCM practices applied in the business ensure that what is done from the perspective of the final customer. It also determines the external pressures that affect the businesses most in protecting the environment. Methods: The study consists of two parts. The data in the first part includes the lower, middle and senior managers working in the construction sector operating in Turkey. The data in the second part includes the final customers located in Yenice, Çanakkale. Results: GSCM applications affect the operational, environmental, and financial performance of the business positively. Additionally, similar results were obtained for the final customers. However, there are differences in the degree of impact of both outcomes. Conclusions: GSCM applications in Turkey protect the environment while searching for the efficiency of the business. However, it seems that the GSCM applications of the business are not fully informed or understood by the final customers. In addition, business employees see that the first factor that will push people to become environmentalists is customer pressure, and the second is the pressure of nongovernmental organizations. The final customers, on the other hand, give priority to environmental awareness first and nongovernmental organizations second. State authority is in the third place.

Background: Reducing negative environmental impacts has become a significant managerial issue. It includes also supply chain participants, e.g., by introducing such concepts as green supplier evaluation or green supplier development. The goal of this paper is to identify concepts aimed at reducing negative environmental impacts in the supply chain (the “green concepts”) and to determine their scope of use. Methods: The research method used in this paper is the review of the existing literature. The reviewed literature is related to the area of reducing negative environmental impacts in supply chain. Results: The results concern the classification of green concepts in supply chain and determining their scope of use, including green supply chain management, green purchasing and green supplier development. Conclusion: The main research implication is providing a basis for further research related to reducing negative environmental impacts in supply chain. It includes also identifying relationships between these concepts and observable trends in the global economy, such as sharing economy and circular economy. The results might also contribute to implementing the green concepts in companies interested in reducing negative environmental impacts in their supply chains. The originality of this work lies in taking into consideration various concepts aimed at reducing negative environmental impacts and discussing them in the context of the supply chain.

How to facilitate collaborative development between the enterprise and the environment under the dual constraints of resources and the environment is the focus of today's green supply chain management system research. Through the performance evaluation of the green supply chain, we can understand the operation of the whole supply chain and its shortcomings, provide a basis for improving related processes, and have important practical significance for improving the competitiveness and protection of its products. First of all, by summarising and analysing the research status of sustainable supply chain management in different countries, the research idea and overall background of this paper are proposed. It discusses the theory of sustainable supply chain management and the performance evaluation system and calculation types of sustainable supply chain management. Finally, the relative weight of each index is determined based on the sustainability calculation method, and then the decentralisation degree of the index is constructed. During this period, the fuzzy comprehensive evaluation method is used to evaluate the performance of sustainable supply chain, conduct case analysis and summary, and evaluate the performance of green supply chain component in economic, social, environmental and other aspects. In this paper, representative companies are selected as examples to evaluate their green supply chain management performance, and the evaluation algorithm is studied based on sustainable calculation method. The results show that a reasonable and effective evaluation of the enterprise performance of green supply chain management and a sustainable algorithm study can effectively identify potential problems in the operation of the company and improve the overall operation of the company at this stage.

Background: The objective of this research is to identify the relationship between green logistics operations, national economic and environmental indicators in a panel of 42 selected global ranked logistics countries over the period from 2007 to 2018. The study aims to expand the domain of green logistics from the micro/firm level to the macro level. Methods: This research paper has used a summary OLS (Ordinary Least Squares) method to test hypotheses. From 2007 to 2018, data panels for 42 countries were downloaded from the World Bank website. Results: The findings of this study indicate that in selected panel countries, the green logistics business has a positive and statistically significant relationship with foreign direct investment inflows, renewable energy consumption, and energ demand. On the other hand, there is a significant negative correlation between CO2 emissions and green logistics. In addition, foreign direct investment and renewable energy are the driving factors of the green logistics business and also promote environmental sustainability. Conclusions: This research paper provides insights into the relationship between green logistics operations and economic and environmental sustainability. In addition, the scope of this research paper is much broader than previously published research papers, in which researchers discovered the relationship between green logistics and corporate performance. However, this research paper focuses on the macro level to understand the link between green logistics and national size indicators.

Badanie to w szczególności rozszerza domenę zielonej logistyki z poziomu mikro czy poszczególnych przedsiębiorstw do skali makro. Metody: W celu testowania hipotez zastosowano metodę OLS (najmniejszych kwadratów). Dane dotyczące wybranych 42 krajów zostały pobrane ze strony internetowej Banku Światowego dla okresu od 2007 do 2018. Wyniki: Uzyskane wyniki pokazują statystycznie istotną i pozytywną współzależność z bezpośrednimi zagranicznymi inwestycjami, konsumpcją energii odnawialnej oraz popytem na energię w analizowanych krajach. Z drugiej strony emisja CO2 oraz zielona logistyką są istotnie negatywne ze sobą skorelowane. Dodatkowo, FDI oraz źródła energii odnawialnej są kluczowymi czynnikami wspomagającymi operacje zielonej logistyki, która prowadzi do zrównoważonego rozwoju pod względem ekologicznym. Wnioski: Prezentowana praca daje wgląd w zależności pomiędzy operacjami zielonej logistyki a ekonomicznym i ekologicznym rozwojem zrównoważonym. Dodatkowo, praca ta ma znacznie szerszy zakres niż wcześniejsze prace dotyczące tej tematyki, w których to zostały przedstawione zależności pomiędzy zieloną logistyką a działalnością firmy. Prezentowana praca skupia się ma poziomie makro w celu uchwycenia zależności pomiędzy zieloną logistyką a wskaźnikami na poziomie krajowym.

The integration of the disciplines of both the green operation and the complex supply chain (including purchasing, production and logistics) came into focus in the 1990s. In the literature review the focus of the researchers of this cross-sectional field was the automotive industry. It seems obvious that these closely-knit systems with high OEM dominance will offer more concrete results: it is difficult to resist when a given OEM starts to involve its first-, second- and third tier suppliers into its environmental schemes and processes. The Hungarian automotive sector can be characterized as somewhat one-sided: it consists of by few large international OEM’s (Audi, Mercedes-Benz, Opel, Suzuki, Raba), but by a large number of small-medium enterprises as 3rd (or even 4th!) tier suppliers. The aim of the paper was to find out whether companies acting as a member of more advanced chains show also better results in their “green” supply-chain-behavior. As a study description, in our empirical research, we have created a toolkit, and examined whether companies, which are using more sophisticated inter-organizational cooperation-tools, are more environmentally cautious, and if yes to what extent. As a result, discussion it can be stated that companies with a higher developed traditional Supply Chain have also a more developed green supply chain management system.

Integracja dyscyplin, zarówno działalności ekologicznej, jak i złożonego łańcucha dostaw (w tym zakupów, produkcji i logistyki) w centrum uwagi znalazła się w latach dziewięćdziesiątych ubiegłego wieku. W przeglądzie literatury przedmiotem zainteresowania badaczy był przemysł motoryzacyjny. Wydaje się oczywiste, że te ściśle powiązane systemy o wysokiej pozycji dominującej wśród producentów oryginalnego wyposażenia(OEM), oferują bardziej konkretne wyniki: trudno jest oprzeć się sytuacji, kiedy dany producent zaczyna angażować swoich dostawców pierwszego, drugiego i trzeciego szczebla w swoje systemy i procesy środowiskowe. Węgierski sektor motoryzacyjny można scharakteryzować jako nieco jednostronny: składa się on z kilku dużych międzynarodowych producentów OEM (Audi, Mercedes-Benz, Opel, Suzuki, Raba), a także dużej liczby małych i średnich przedsiębiorstw jako dostawców trzeciego (lub nawet czwartego) poziomu. Celem artykułu było ustalenie, czy firmy działające jako członkowie bardziej zaawansowanych sieci wykazują również lepsze wyniki w swoich "zielonych" zachowaniach związanych z łańcuchem dostaw. W badaniach empirycznych stworzono zestaw narzędzi i zbadano, czy firmy, które używają bardziej wyrafinowanych narzędzi współpracy międzyorganizacyjnej, są bardziej ostrożne ekologicznie, a jeśli tak, to w jakim stopniu. Na podstawie przeprowadzonych badań, można stwierdzić, że firmy o bardziej rozwiniętym tradycyjnym łańcuchu dostaw mają również bardziej rozwinięty system zarządzania zielonym łańcuchem dostaw.

W artykule podjęto rozważania dotyczące problematyki dzielenia się wiedzą w przedsiębiorstwach oraz zarządzania zielonym łańcuchem dostaw. Zaprezentowano podstawy teoretyczne dotyczące istoty i specyfiki stosowanych w tym zakresie praktyk. Następnie przedstawiono wyniki badań empirycznych, których celem było określenie stopnia zaawansowania praktyk w obszarze dzielenia się wiedzą w przedsiębiorstwach działających w Polsce, z uwzględnieniem jego zróżnicowania w zależności od wielkości badanych podmiotów oraz rodzaju prowadzonej działalności. Dokonano ponadto oceny zaawansowania wybranych praktyk zarządzania zielonym łańcuchem dostaw oraz porównania jego poziomu w zależności od stopnia intensywności dzielenia się wiedzą w przedsiębiorstwach. Z przeprowadzonych badań wynika, że intensywność dzielenia się wiedzą statystycznie istotnie wpływa na zróżnicowanie zaawansowania wszystkich analizowanych praktyk zarządzania zielonym łańcuchem dostaw.
