Abstract

Logistics is an important link connecting all operational activities of enterprises and has a significant impact on their growth and green initiatives. In contrast to traditional logistics, green logistics in enterprises’ green growth model focus on achieving environmental friendliness while pursuing optimal efficiency of resource allocation in logistics and distribution activities. This chapter mainly covers four aspects. First, it briefly introduces the connotation and main implementation path of green logistics. Second, it presents the split routing optimization problem of low-carbon distribution with the optimization goal of reducing carbon emissions. And then, it presents the routing optimization problem of collaborative distribution in forward and reverse logistics considering multiple types of depots under complete information sharing. Finally, the routing optimization problem for hazardous materials distribution based on the principles of fatal incident avoidance is proposed.
