Abstract:

"In this project, we propose to address carbon emissions in logistics through supply chain design, planning and ; coordination. We argue that (1) supply chain design, planning, and coordination can help reduce carbon emissions ; significantly, (2) supply chain-wide collaboration can lead to lower emissions at lower cost for the entire supply chain, ; and (3) imposing supply chain-wide emissions limits can make emissions reductions more economical for the entire ; supply chain by recognizing the differential capabilities of firms in meeting emission standards and by allowing internal ; carbon offsetting to take place between firms within the same supply chain."
