Climate change has a profound impact on our way of life, prompting both individuals and companies to contribute to a greener future. The logistics sector is no exception, as green logistics plays an increasingly significant role within the supply chain. To practice sustainable and ecological logistics, it is crucial to implement green practices right from the initial movement of goods. This article delves into the concept of green logistics, supply chain trends, green supply chain practices, and tools for green logistics management. The adoption of green logistics by transportation companies is seen as a means to enhance their competitive advantage in today’s economic, social, and environmental landscape. However, effectively implementing the principles of sustainable development requires the integration of different areas that are often treated separately, necessitating new methods and tools. Nevertheless, there exists a knowledge gap regarding the practical application of green logistics measures, highlighting the need for further understanding and insights in this area.
