Green Supply Chains. An Action Manifesto
Description:
Stuart Emmett and Vivek Sood's book provides a clear strategic overview and actionable plan for the
implementation of green supply chains. For anyone grappling with the elements required to change an
organization's supply chain strategy in a 'green' direction, this book is a must read.
"Having worked with Stuart Emmett on other ground breaking books, I can empathically say that this book
written with Vivek Sood is another one in the same mould. This enjoyable book not only covers a topic that is
critically relevant for every individual, but also provides a practical road map for a green supply chain
strategy. Strongly recommended, it is a book of it time."
—Barry Crocker, Author and MSC Program Leader, University of Salford
"After co-creating the supply chain management methodology in 1979, I have remained at the forefront of
this field for the last 30 years by continually pushing the boundaries of thoughts and applications in Supply
Chain Management. But, during all this time, nothing has excited me as much as our current endeavor on
Green Supply Chains. It is the need of the moment, resonating in all directions. What is more important, it
makes perfect commercial sense. This book by Vivek Sood and Stuart Emmett is a big step in furthering that
discussion. It should be on the bookshelf of every progressive manager."
—Dr Wolfgang Partsch, Global Supply Chain Group, Munich, Germany
"…As supply chains have become more visible to people around the world, and at the same time more
global, questions about their impact on the environment and global sustainability have increased. People
who care about our Planet often wonder what are the adverse impacts of transporting goods thousands of
miles...goods that are often produced in manufacturing plants that are not environmentally friendly...and
then packaged in what becomes waste. So, companies and governments worldwide have begun to address
the questions. The authors have addressed the questions in an insightful manner. They have analyzed the
supply chain processes, presented new ideas, and have backed these up with solid case examples from
leading companies. The book is a must read for anyone who manages a supply chain, cares about the
environment, and seeks actionable ideas for 'going green'."
—Gene Tyndall, Executive Vice President, Global Tompkins International
"This book treats the 'Next Generation' Supply Chain in a phenomenal way. It is an emerging topic, a
paradigm shifting approach for companies on their radical cost saving waves, and an absolutely necessary
component of the sustainability for our Planet."
—Ahmet Yalçin Managing Partner at Stars of Europeand Chairman of the Board of the German Solar Energy
company Green Enesys Group
