Abstract

Reports on a survey, the subject of which – the environment – is one of the key issues facing the world today. The objectives in carrying out this survey were both to increase understanding of current attitudes and policies, and to stimulate a wider discussion within the logistics industry. Aims to find out whether companies have specific environmental policies and what actions they are taking to protect the environment. Also looks into the views of logistics professionals on the current and future importance of environmental considerations within their own specialist area. Results show that there is still much to be done, but in many areas environmental improvement and cost savings can go hand‐in‐hand. Provides an essential baseline for quantifying future environmental improvement and contributes to raising the awareness of everybody in the industry.
