Green Supply Chains
Green supply chains are built on the concepts of management of green manufacturing and supply chains, with environmental protection incorporated into every activity in the whole process from materials supply, processing, packaging, storage, transportation, use, discarding, to recycling. Product-related environmental management needs to be strengthened to minimize the impact on the environment and maximize the efficiency of resource utilization. Green ideas will guide the suppliers, producers, sellers and customers to change their approach to management and behavior.
The Chinese central authorities value innovative development of modern supply chains. The report to the CPC's 19th National Congress championed the idea of fostering new growth areas and drivers of growth in modern supply chains.
In April 2018, eight central ministries or regulatory bodies including the Ministry of Commerce jointly issued a circular about innovative development of modern supply chains. Eligible cities and enterprises were encouraged to apply to be pilots in building green supply chains to gain experience in environmental improvement.
In building green supply chains, the government and the market will play their roles in supporting green development. On the one hand, local governments should take the lead in green procurement, adopt relevant institutions to support the green supply chains, and thus pass on the pressure and motivation of environmental improvement to every enterprise on the whole industrial chain. On the other hand, each enterprise, be it purchaser or supplier, should assume duties in environmental improvement, share the costs, control the risks, and seek support from the customers and the general public, so as to become stably and sustainably competitive in the market.
綠色供應(yīng)鏈
綠色供應(yīng)鏈以綠色制造和供應(yīng)鏈管理理論為基礎(chǔ),將環(huán)境保護(hù)納入物料獲取、加工、包裝、倉(cāng)儲(chǔ)、運(yùn)輸、使用、報(bào)廢和回收處理的全生命周期中,加強(qiáng)產(chǎn)品環(huán)境管理,追求環(huán)境影響最小化、資源效率最大化,是涉及供應(yīng)商、生產(chǎn)廠、銷售商和用戶的綠色管理理念、行動(dòng)指南和轉(zhuǎn)型方向。
中共中央、國(guó)務(wù)院高度重視現(xiàn)代供應(yīng)鏈創(chuàng)新發(fā)展。中共十九大提出要在現(xiàn)代供應(yīng)鏈等領(lǐng)域培育新增長(zhǎng)點(diǎn)、形成新動(dòng)能。2018年4月,商務(wù)部等8部門聯(lián)合下發(fā)《關(guān)于開(kāi)展供應(yīng)鏈創(chuàng)新與應(yīng)用試點(diǎn)的通知》,以構(gòu)建綠色供應(yīng)鏈為重點(diǎn),引導(dǎo)地方和企業(yè)踐行綠色發(fā)展理念,發(fā)展全過(guò)程全環(huán)節(jié)的綠色供應(yīng)鏈體系,促進(jìn)生態(tài)環(huán)境質(zhì)量改善。
綠色供應(yīng)鏈的構(gòu)建,將有效發(fā)揮政府和市場(chǎng)作用,服務(wù)和支撐綠色發(fā)展。一方面,地方政府既要率先垂范,強(qiáng)化政府綠色采購(gòu)等行為,又要建章立制,為綠色供應(yīng)鏈提供制度保障,最終將治理環(huán)境的壓力、綠色發(fā)展的動(dòng)力傳導(dǎo)到產(chǎn)業(yè)鏈條上的每家企業(yè)。另一方面,綠色供應(yīng)鏈上的每家企業(yè),無(wú)論是供應(yīng)商還是采購(gòu)商,都要全面履行環(huán)境治理主體責(zé)任,實(shí)現(xiàn)環(huán)境成本合理分擔(dān)、環(huán)境風(fēng)險(xiǎn)整體防控,爭(zhēng)取消費(fèi)者和公眾支持,從而獲得更為穩(wěn)定、長(zhǎng)久、可持續(xù)的市場(chǎng)競(jìng)爭(zhēng)力。
