Greening logistics and its impact on environmental performance: an absorptive capacity perspective

Ahmad Abareshi, Alemayehu Molla · 2013 · International Journal of Logistics Research and Applications

Summary. Australian logistics and transport operators improve environmental performance by building absorptive capacity—the ability to acquire, assimilate, transform, and exploit green logistics knowledge. The study of 279 firms shows that enhancing knowledge exploitation through operational changes and new practices reduces CO2 emissions, fuel consumption, and environmental compliance costs. Firms must systematically integrate environmental information across channels to achieve greener logistics.
