Green Supply Chains

Green supply chains - What the next generation of trade looks like In a world of growing environmental crises, social tensions, and geopolitical uncertainties, supply chains are becoming the focus of economic, political, and social transformation. This book shows why green supply chains are not a passing trend, but rather the foundation of a sustainable economy - and how they can be shaped in concrete terms. Clear, well-researched, and interdisciplinary, the book analyzes the many dimensions of sustainable supply chains: from ESG standards and new regulations such as the Supply Chain Act to digital innovations, circular economy, and postcolonial responsibility. Numerous practical examples, political debates, and technological scenarios for the future make it clear that the future of trade will be decided along the paths we are willing to change today. The book is aimed at decision-makers in business and politics, sustainability managers, researchers, students, and anyone who wants to understand how global responsibility, economic resilience, and ecological sustainability can-and must-work together.
