“…Lambert and Cooper (2000) defined "Green procurement as the process of giving due consideration to the sustainability issue while undertaking, procurement of raw material, in addition to traditional purchasing criteria of cost delivery and time". Abdallah et al (2012) developed a mixed integer programme for a carbon-sensitive supply chain that reduces emissions all over the supply chain by initiating green procurement. Plastic industries are of two types: 1 upstream plastic industries 2 downstream plastic industries.…”

Industries are facing pressure to reduce pollution and become more eco-friendly due to increasing environmental awareness among customers and due to government regulations. Because of these reasons, industries are now adopting eco-friendly concepts to reduce pollution in the entire manufacturing process. The green supply chain management (GSCM) concept is a methodology to achieve a pollution free environment from procurement to after sales of products. This paper identifies the foremost barriers to implementing GSCM, ranked on the basis of significant factors in the Indian plastic processing industry. Thirty-eight barriers were identified from the available literature and through consultation with industry experts and academicians. They were statistically analysed on the basis of opinions from experts, using statistical tools like T-test, expectation values and analysis of variance (ANOVA).

“…The literature is common in presenting mathematical models to integrate carbon prices explicitly in green supply chain design and to justify the cost-effectiveness of applying the emission trading policy into the context of supply chain [12][13][14][15][16][17]. This quantitative analysis allows evaluating impacts of different decision alternatives in terms of logistics cost and carbon footprint.…”

Reports show that it is necessary to control greenhouse gas emissions from the supply chain perspective. Numerous authors have already started quantifying the impacts of emission trading on supply chain performance in terms of cost and emissions. However, rare effort is made to conceptualize this implementation. This paper generates firstly one conceptual framework for supply chain emission trading through a review of previous work and then asserts how practically it could work out. In addition, the risks confronted by firms and supply chains under emission trading are identified considering each step involved in the framework. These risks are further classified based on the concept of supply chain risks. Results show that the implementation of emission trading on supply chain would raise additional risks into existing supply chain risk portfolio. At last, this paper provides some risk mitigation measures for those identified risks.

“…Other studies examine the environmental impacts of both online and conventional retail supply chains and they further examine the methodological issues associated with carbon -1142-Journal of Industrial Engineering and Management -http://dx.doi.org/10.3926/jiem.883 auditing of these retail channels (Edwards, McKinnon, & Cullinane, 2011). Finally, some tradeoff frameworks have also been developed between carbon emissions and logistics aspects like costs or performance (Abdallah, Farhat, Diabat, & Kennedy, 2011;Alves Jr, MacIel, Lim, Magnani, & Arcoverde Jr, 2011;Harris, Naim, Palmer, Potter, & Mumford, 2011;Jaegler & Burlat, 2012;Kim, Janic, & Van Wee, 2009;Winebrake, Corbett, Falzarano, Hawker, Korfmacher, Ketha et al, 2008).…”

Abstract:Purpose: The paper aims to provide a general overview of the impacts of climate change upon supply chains and to analyze the implications of climate change for supply chain management in terms of strategic and operational planning. A roadmap of fruitful research approaches is also presented.Design/methodology/approach: The paper makes use of a general review of the relevant literature and, based on a systematic categorization of the findings, looks for useful insights towards the issues of climate change and supply chain management. A framework is drawn for systematically assessing the impacts of climate change upon supply chains and their management, while making suggestions for future research. Practical implications: The paper provides several insights towards the issues of supply chain management in view of climate change and may serve as an initial basis for exploring future research directions by academics. Practitioners, especially those drafting value-creating supply chain agendas, may also find these insights useful for improving their managerial practices. Originality/value: By providing an original structured overview of the impacts of climate change upon supply chain design and operations management the paper substantiates the need for management improvements and provides research directions that may prove valuable to researchers.
