Abstract

Despite the increasing impact of logistics on environmental issues, the comprehensive and updated assessment of green logistics' existing literature is lacking. This review aims to bridge this gap by presenting a systematic literature review of green logistics in China. The authors applied the systematic literature review to collect green logistics publications from 2010 to 2020. The review provides insights into the essential dimensions of green logistics in transport and logistics service firms using an analytical approach based on green transportation, green warehousing, and green packaging. Despite the number of published articles having increased significantly since 2016, some areas remain under-researched such as the green logistics cycle model, topographical transportation and technical gaps, and intelligent green logistics. Numerous research gaps have been identified in the subject areas, and a set of propositions have been suggested to form the future research agenda.
