Abstract
Public concern over resource depletion, congestion, waste disposal, and various types of pollution has focused increased attention on environmental issues. These environmental issues are expected to broaden the scope of logistics and influence the way in which logistics managers do their jobs. To date, there has been relatively limited empirical research looking at the relationship between environmentalism and logistics management. Reports the findings of a survey of US manufacturers and merchandisers dealing with the role and relevance of logistics to corporate environmental efforts.
