Research on the Reduction of Greenhouse Gas Emission in Supply Chain Management
Journal Title: Pollution and Public Health - Year 2018, Vol 1, Issue 1
Abstract
The environmentalists and scientists around the world are seriously worried about the increasingly bad effects of greenhouse gas in the earth's ecological system. During the last centenary amount of greenhouse gas in the earth’s atmospheres have been increased significantly due to rapid industrialization in all over the world. Recent year’s researchers and practitioners are also showed keen interest to include issues like greenhouse gas emission, government regulations, and cap-and-trade system in business modelling. This study develops a short review and bibliometric study on the research works on reduction of greenhouse gas emission in supply chain management. Data are collected using the Scopus database on 1st December 2017. According to Scopus database, total 156 documents (articles, reviews and article in press) used “Emissions” and “Supply Chain” in their title, which are considered for this study. This study aims to explore data like year-wise number of publications, citation structure, top 20 most cited publications, leading keywords, top contributing authors, institutions and countries and their collaborations in the collected data. The present study reveals that the supply chain management researchers are increasingly showing keen interest on controlling GHG emissions. Journal of Cleaner Production leads the list of Top 10 productive journals with 21 publications followed by the IJPE. China has occupied the top position well ahead of its challengers. Tianjin University is the most productive university. L. He, C. Wang and M. Y. Jaber are the leading authors. Moreover, it utilizes the Visualization of Similarities viewer software to analyze bibliographic coupling, and co-occurrence of keywords. Beside supply chain and “emissions” other most frequent keywords are “game theory”, “cap-and-trade”, “life cycle” assessment‟ and “carbon footprint‟.
