Increase in population and development in industry and technology have a great impact on consumption. Increase in the consumption leads to environmental pollution and global warming eventually. These threats have taught people to be sensitive to the environment and to live 'green' while trying to make life easier for themselves. For this reason, the production, distribution and marketing of the product have emerged under the concept of 'green supply chain management' as an environmentally friendly study. In Turkey, industrialization process did not have an intention to give harm to environment. Therefore, green practices are started to be used in the production and services today in our country. For this reason, the subject of "Green Supply Chain Management" has been chosen and tried to be explained in order to primarily guide all domestic and foreign businesses operating in our country to improve their environmental performance by reducing their environmental impacts. The first part of the study is a review on green supply chain management and mentions the usages in logistics. The latter part of the study aimed to shed light on the green logistics applications to the companies in Turkey by comparing the existing applications with the literature, and with in the content analysis.It is also tried to reach the opinions of the logistics sector representatives about the perception of green supply chain management and Turkey's situation on this issue. In addition, the study also discusses what can be done for the future in terms of the environment.
Energy policies are seriously affecting economic and social life all over the world as well as in Turkey. When the supply process from the energy resource to the consumer increases in energy cost depending on transport type it has important influence. Increase in energy costs in the supply chain is undertaken by all stakeholders. In this study, we examine at which level road transportation costs, which is the most predominant type of transportation in Turkey is influenced by energy consumption with reference to the energy policies of Turkey and energy consumption of Turkish transportation sector. Thus certain suggestions reducing energy costs have been made to all parties in the supply chain by considering the distribution between energy related costs and other costs. Keywords: Energy, Supply Chain, Transportation AN OVERVIEW OF ENERGY CONSEPTEnergy, one of the base quantities of Physics. Energy is a conservative magnitude, it can not be fragmented as it can not be destroyed but it can convert from one form to another. During this conversion process energy loses occur these loses cause unproductiveness. The form of energy which is converted or transformed is called "Primary Energy". Primary energy resources: coal, crude oil, natural gas, nuclear, hydraulic, bio-mass, tidal-wave, sunlight and wind [ Figure 1]. Conversion of primary energy creates a new energy that called "Secondary Energy". Electric, gasoline, diesel oil, coking coal, liquefied petroleum gas are the examples for secondary energy resources. Energy resources on the Earth are divided into two by their generation, fossil and renewable. Fossil (exhaustible) energy resources; hard coal, crude oil, natural gas, uranium, lignite, turf, thorium and asphalt[ Table 1]. Because of their generation take ages, they are non-regenerative energies, due to uncertainty in reserves their costs are increasing. Renewable (natural) energy sources classified as solar energy, wind energy, hydraulic energy, geothermal energy, sea origin energies (wave or tidal) Renewable energy sources are less harmful sources than fossil energy sources. This sources are sources which, generally available on the earth and nature without need for any production process, during production of electricity CO 2 emission occur, regenerate with continuous motion and existing in nature as ready to use [1].
Afetlerin sonuçlarını incelediğimizde can ve mal kaybı haricinde toplumsal olarak da yaşanan travmaların çok olduğunu görebilmekteyiz. Toplumsal olarak afetlere hazırlıklı olduğumuzda, yaşanabilecek bir Afet durumunda can ve mal kaybının daha az olacağı ve daha çabuk toparlanabileceğimiz söylenebilir. Afet çeşitlerine göre, her bölgede yapılması gereken ön hazırlıklar için afet haritası çıkarılması zaruri ihtiyaçtır. İdari amirliklerce yapılan bu çalışmanın neticesinde önem arz eden durumlara göre tedarikçi bulmak, doğru depolama alanı belirlemek, acil durum personelini eğitmek, depolardaki malzemelerin periyodik olarak kontrolü ve teminin sağlanması gibi disiplinli, bir ön çalışma gerektirmektedir. Çalışma ile depo seçiminde konunun uzmanlarının görüşleri alınarak yer seçimi gerçekleştirilen etmen puan yöntemi kullanılacaktır. Büyük bir deprem bekleyen İstanbul ilinin depremden daha az etkilenmesi beklenen Beykoz ilçesinde afet depo yeri seçimi için uygun yer seçimi yapılacaktır. Çalışma sonunda seçilen yer artı ve eksi yönleriyle değerlendirilirken idari birimlere gelecek için fikir verilmiş olacaktır.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
