8、Introduction A broad consensus has by now emerged that anthropogenic emissions pose serious threat to the stability of our environment, and that the resulting changes will affect our ecosystem by disrupting food and water supplies, submerging coastal wetlands, and causing severe weather patterns and

9、 species extinction. The global average temperature has been rising since the early 1900s, and has risen by more than 0.5 C in the last 50 years alone, with an accompanying rise in global average sea levels and drop in Northern Hemisphere snow cover (IPCC, 2007a). Decades of careful data collection,

10、 analysis and projections by groups of scientists and researchers around the world have confirmed that the world faces severe changes with an expected 24 C rise in global average temperature by the year 2100: 30 40% of the species could be extinct, close to a third of global coastal wetlands are in

11、danger of being submerged, millions of people will likely face food and water shortages, and 名师资料总结 - - -精品资料欢迎下载 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 名师精心整理 - - - - - - - 第 3 页，共 39 页 - - - - - - - - - many densely populated areas of the world, including many parts of Asia, will face higher rates of

12、 morbidity and mortality from heat waves, floods and droughts (IPCC, 2007b). A large part of the blame has been attributed to the six greenhouse gases (GHGs) that are known to trap heat into the earths atmosphere and contribute to a rise i n global temperature: primary ones being carbon dioxide, met

13、hane, and nitrous oxide. As measurements have shown, concentrations of GHGs in the earths atmosphere have been relatively stable over the last 10,000 years (at between 250 and 300 parts per million). However, in the last 150 years or so since the beginning of industrial revolution concentrations of

14、carbon dioxide in the atmosphere have shot up by more than 30% (from less than 300 ppm to close to 400 ppm), and concentrations of methane have almost doubled (IPCC, 2007a). Several large scale model projections have shown that a business-as-usual scenario, with no changes in our production methods

15、and consumption habits, will lead to an imbalance in the ecosystem and damage the stability of our environment. There is an obvious need for urgent action to change the way we consume the earth s resources. Among the many approaches to mitigation and adaptation being considered, the processes for de

16、signing, sourcing, producing and distributing products in global markets play a central role, as these activities account for a bulk of the resources consumed and the environmental impact. For example, in the United States, industrial activities account for about a third of fossil fuel related carbo

17、n dioxide emissions; another 40% are accounted for by transportation (EPA, 2007). Evidently, design and management of supply chain activities is a primary factor in promoting environmental sustainability. 名师资料总结 - - -精品资料欢迎下载 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 名师精心整理 - - - - - - - 第 4 页，共 39 页 - -

In Section 2, we provide a definition and description of Sustain

In Section 3, we summarise and discuss existing classifications and reviews of research in this field, and describe how our perspective differs from those in the literature. Section 4 presents the bulk of recent research in this area that fits our integrative perspectiv

We conclude in Section 5 with a discussion of some environmental initiatives in India an

21、d the relevance of sustainability discussions in the context of the Indian economy. Sustainable Supply Chain Management (SSCM) We define Sustainable Supply Chain Management (SSCM) as a set of managerial practices that include all of the following: Environmental impact as an imperative; Consideration

22、 of all stages across the entire value chain for each product; and A multi-disciplinary perspective, encompassing the entire product life-cycle.This definition implies a few broad themes in our perspective on environmental sustainability. First, firms must view environmental impact of their activiti

23、es as an integral part of decision-making, rather than as a constraint imposed by government regulation or social pressure, or as a fad to exploit by appearing to be “green ”. Second, firms must pay attention to environmental impact across the entire value chain, including those of suppliers, distri

24、butors, partners and customers. Third, firms view of sustainability must transcend a narrow functional 名师资料总结 - - -精品资料欢迎下载 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 名师精心整理 - - - - - - - 第 5 页，共 39 页 - - - - - - - - - perspective and encompass a broader view that integrates issues, problems and solutions

25、across functional boundaries. In keeping with this definition, our review of the literature on SSCM adopts a firm perspective, rather than societal or policy- makers perspect ive, and focuses on organisational decisions related to the entire product life-cycle that involves design, production, distr

26、ibution, consumer use, post-use recovery and reuse. We do not limit ourselves to literature in any one academic discipline; rather, we focus on interactions across functional areas including corporate strategy, product design, production and inventory management, marketing and distribution, and, reg

27、ulatory compliance. The paper is intended to provide managers and industry practitioners with a nuanced understanding of issues and trade-offs involved in making decisions related to SSCM. The paper is also intended to provide management researchers with a summary of the current state of the art in

28、SSCM research, and a roadmap for future research directions. SSCM research: reviews and classification Several excellent reviews have been written over the years that examine various aspects of SSCM-related research. While these reviews adopt different perspectives from ours, readers interested in e

29、xploring a particular aspect of SSCM would find them useful. For instance, many of the existing reviews explore the SSCM literature for implications of environmental concerns on firms individual functions involving activities such as product design, production planning, or inventory management. On t

30、he contrary, we examine the existing studies from a value-chain perspective, and discuss environmental concerns in managerial decisions across 名师资料总结 - - -精品资料欢迎下载 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 名师精心整理 - - - - - - - 第 6 页，共 39 页 - - - - - - - - - functions. Moreover, most of the existing review

31、s cover literature that is, in some cases, over a decade old. Our review focuses on more recent research in this fast changing and growing field. Early research efforts in SSCM were largely devoted to understanding the technical and operational considerations inherent in collecting, testing, sorting

32、, and remanufacturing of returned products. Research in this domain can broadly be classified under the following headings: (i) Production planning, scheduling and control; (ii) Inventory management; and (iii) Reverse logistics. While research in these areas continues, given the availability of exce

33、llent reviews covering this domain, we will abstract from these issues in our review, and encourage the readers to consult the papers mentioned below. In an early review of the literature, Greenberg (1995) surveys the use of mathematical programming models for controlling environmental quality, focu

34、ssing on air, water, and land. The paper is limited to general equilibrium models with multiple decision making agents, where an equivalent mathematical program can be formulated to compute a fixed point. The review provides an annotated bibliography with more than 300 papers, and identifies many re

35、search avenues for studies using mathematical programming in addressing environmental concerns. Fleischmann et al. (1997) focus on quantitative models of reverse logistics, and subdivide the literature in three areas: distribution planning, inventory control, and production planning. For each of the

36、se areas, the authors discuss the implications of the product reuse efforts being explored at the time, review the mathematical models proposed in the literature, and point out the areas in need of further research. Carter and Ellram (1998) also focus on reverse logistics, but present a more holisti

37、c view that includes the reduction of materials in the 名师资料总结 - - -精品资料欢迎下载 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 名师精心整理 - - - - - - - 第 7 页，共 39 页 - - - - - - - - - forward system in such a way that fewer materials flow back, reuse of materials is made possible, and recycling is facilitated. The pape

In particular, the authors identify important players and influencing factors (internal, external and environmental) involved in reverse logistics and provide a f

39、ramework to study these issues. Gungor and Gupta (1999) focus on environmentally conscious manufacturing and product recovery , described as integrating environmental thinking into new product development including design, material selection, manufacturing processes, product delivery to the consumer

40、s, and end-of-life management of the product. The authors review and categorise more than 300 papers based on four stages of product life-cycle analysis: product design, manufacturing, use, and recovery. The paper argues that two key issues involved in environmentally conscious manufacturing are: (i

41、) understanding the life -cycle of the product and its impact on the environment at each of its life stages, and (ii) making better decisions during product design and manufacturing so that the environmental attributes of the product and manufacturing process are kept at a desired level. Consistent

Similar issues are tack

In a departure from the narrower focus of articles summarised above, Kleindorfer, Singhal, and van Wassenhove (2005) review various sustainability themes covered in the first 50 issues of Production and Operations Ma

The authors suggest that businesses are under an increasing pressure to pay more attention to the environmental and resource consequences of the products and services they offer and the processes they deploy.

The paper concludes with some thoughts on future research challenges in sustainable operations management, highlighting three areas green product and p

The authors summarise evolution of CLSC research through five phases, which is useful in understanding the evolution of a subset of research activities within SSCM. The paper

Phase 2 has expanded research problems to include inventory control, reverse logistics networks, and 名师资料总结 - - -精品资料欢迎下载 - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
