The carbon cost influences research on supply chain network design

Many factors influence carbon emissions across the entire supply chain (see Figure below). Therefore, it is essential to consider these factors holistically and evaluate the trade-offs between carbon emissions and overall supply chain performance.
Factuors to consider in Sustainable Supply Chain

These factors affect both traditional supply chain performance measures and the additional costs associated with carbon emissions. A more detailed analysis of these factors enables organisations to make better-informed decisions, which is more likely to improve overall supply chain performance while reducing environmental impacts.
