The Green Supply Chain Management: A Perspective on Circular Economy

Abstract:

Circular economy is a kind of economic growth pattern that utilizes resource circularly with low consumption, low emission and high efficiency. Upon the basis of circular economy theory to study the construction of green supply chain, with applied case study method, it reached the conclusions that: 1) The circular economys development is a staged process, it needs to plan at industry level; 2) Circular economy involves the whole industrial chain of production layout; and 3) Government can promote the green supply chain management and construction of circular economy through sharing resources and infrastructure.
