Can anyone tell me why greening the inbound function of the supply chain does not lead to the greening of productions???
greening the inbound phase of a green supply chain:
(1) holding awareness seminars for suppliers and contractors;
(2) guiding suppliers to set up their own environmental programs;
(3) bringing together suppliers in the same industry to share their know-how and
problems;
(4) informing suppliers about the benefits of cleaner production and technologies;
(5) urging/pressuring suppliers to take environmental actions; and
(6) choice of suppliers by environmental criteria.
Greening the production phase or the internal supply chain
eight variables that measure the greening of the production phase:
(1) environmentally-friendly raw materials;
(2) substitution of environmentally questionable materials;
(3) taking environmental criteria into consideration;
(4) environmental design considerations;
(5) optimization of process to reduce solid waste and emissions;
(6) use of cleaner technology processes to make savings in energy, water, and
waste;
(7) internal recycling of materials within the production phase; and
Why will some company inform their suppliers about the benefits of cleaner production and technologies and not adopt it themselves?
Why???
Green inbound can be from the view of firms attending the seminars yet the production is not green. Or eh...firms who give the seminars and yet their production is not green. waha. Which one? or both?
Edward?? You know? zzzzzz.
