This book examines the state of the art in green transportation logistics from the perspective of balancing environmental performance in the transportation supply chain while also satisfying traditional economic performance criteria. Part of the book is drawn from the recently completed European Union project Super Green, a three-year project intended to promote the development of European freight corridors in an environmentally friendly manner. Additional chapters cover both the methodological base and the application context of green transportation logistics.
Individual chapters look at the policy context; the basics of transportation emissions; Green Corridors basics; the concept of TEN-T (Trans-European Network); Benchmarking of green corridors; the potential role of ICT (Information and Communication Technologies); Green vehicle routing; Reducing maritime CO2 emissions via market based measures and speed and route optimization; Sulphur emissions; Lifecycle emissions; Green rail transportation; Green air transportation; Green inland navigation and possible areas for further research.
Throughout, the book pursues the goal of "win-win" solutions and analyzes the phenomenon of "push-down, pop-up", wherein a change in one aspect of a problem can cause another troubling aspect to arise. For example, speed reduction in maritime transportation can reduce emissions and fuel costs, but could require additional ships and could raise in-transit inventory costs. Or, regulations to reduce sulphur emissions may ultimately increase CO2 elsewhere in the supply chain. The book takes stock at the various tradeoffs that are at stake in the goal of greening the supply chain and looks at where balances can be struck.

À propos de l’auteur
Harilaos N. Psaraftis
Since May 2013 Harilaos N. Psaraftis is Professor of Transport Optimization at the Department of Transport of the Technical University of Denmark (DTU). He has a diploma from the National Technical University of Athens (NTUA, 1974), and two M.Sc. degrees (1977) and a Ph.D. (1979) from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). He was a faculty member at MIT from 1979 to 1989 (Department of Ocean Engineering), receiving tenure there in 1985. In the period from 1989 to 2013 he was Professor of Maritime Transport at the School of Naval Architecture and Marine Engineering and Director of the Laboratory for Maritime Transport at NTUA.
Psaraftis's main interests are in transportation logistics, with a focus on sustainability issues in recent years. At MIT he headed some 11 research projects on various subjects including ship routing and scheduling, dial-a-ride systems and oil spill response. At NTUA he led some 30 projects in practically all areas of maritime transportation. Among the 20 or so EU projects he was involved in, he has coordinated 3 multi-partner EU consortia, including project Super Green on European Green Corridors (2010-2013). At DTU he leads a new project on mitigating and reversing the impact of environmental legislation on the Ro-Ro sector in Northern Europe, funded by the Danish Maritime Fund (2015-2017).
Psaraftis's published work includes 3 books, 18 book chapters, over 135 articles in refereed journals and conferences, over 150 talks in various other conferences and over 100 other publications. He has chaired several international conferences and organized several conference sessions and clusters on topics such as logistics, vehicle routing and scheduling, maritime and intermodal transportation, ports, and maritime safety, security and environmental protection and is on the editorial board of several journals, including Transportation Science since 1987. He is amember of INFORMS since 1977 and a Fellow of SNAME since 2009. He has received various academic and industry awards.
In addition to his academic duties, Psaraftis served as CEO of the Piraeus Port Authority (OLP) from 8/1996 to 3/2002. His tenure has been linked with such developments that include (a) Piraeus putting itself on the list of the top 50 world container ports (No. 41 in 1998) and becoming the top hub of the Eastern Mediterranean, with traffic more than doubling from 575.000 TEU (1996) to 1.160.000 TEU (2001) and (b) OLP being transformed from a public law undertaking into a corporation (1999). He has been the 2nd longest serving CEO since OLP's inception in 1930. In 2006 he became a member of the Greek delegation to the International Maritime Organization (IMO), where he has served as chairman of various correspondence and working groups and as a member of various expert groups.

Droit de rétractation
Instructions for revocation
Right of withdrawal for the sale of goods
Revocation right for consumers
(A ‘consumer' is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction which, to an overwhelming extent, cannot be attributed to either his commercial or independent professional activities.)
Instructions for revocation
Revocation right
You have the right to revoke this contract within 14 days without specifying any reasons.
The revocation period is 14 days with effect from the day,
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the products, provided you had ordered one or more products within the scope of a standard order and this/these product/products is/are delivered uniformly;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last product, provided you had ordered several products within the scope of a standard order and these products are delivered separately;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last part delivery or the last unit, provided you had ordered a product, which is delivered in several part deliveries or units;
To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us (preigu GmbH & Co. KG, Lengericher Landstr. 19, 49078 Osnabrück, Telephone number: +49 (0) 541 / 580 72 84, E-Mail address: mail@preigu.de) by means of a clear declaration (e.g. a letter sent by post, or an e-mail) of your decision to withdraw from this contract. You can use the attached model withdrawal form for this purpose, which is, however, not mandatory.
You can also exercise your right of withdrawal online by clicking on a button labelled accordingly (such as ‘Withdraw from contract' or similar) on the AbeBooks/ZVAB website. If you use this online function, you will immediately receive a confirmation of receipt on a durable medium (e.g. via email) containing information on the content of the withdrawal notice, as well as the date and time of its receipt.
In order to safeguard the revocation period, it is sufficient that you send the notification about the exercise of the revocation right before the expiry of the revocation period.
Consequences of the revocation
If you revoke this contract, we shall repay all the payments, which we received from you, including the delivery costs (with the exception of additional costs, which arise from that fact that you selected a form of delivery other than the most reasonable standard delivery offered by us), immediately and at the latest within 14 days from the day on which we received the notification about the revocation of this contract from you. We use the same means of payment, which you had originally used during the original transaction, for this repayment unless expressly agreed otherwise with you; you will not be charged any fees owing to this repayment.
We can refuse the repayment until the products are returned to us or until you have furnished evidence that you have sent the products back to us, depending on whichever is earlier.
You must return or transfer the products to us immediately and, in any case, at the latest within 14 days with effect from the day on which you inform us of the revocation of this contract. The deadline is maintained if you send the products before the expiry of the 14 day deadline.
You bear the direct costs for returning the products.
You must pay for any depreciation of the products only if this depreciation can be attributed to any handling with you that was not necessary for checking the condition, features and functionality of the products.
