تدارکات سبز و شاخص های اقتصادی در سطح ملی: شواهد از یک پنجم کشورهای اروپایی انتخاب شده

The objective of the study is to examine the impact of logistics performance indices on national scale economic indicators i.e., energy, environment, and economic health in a panel of 27 European countries over a period of 2007–2014. The results show that logistics performance index in terms of ‘timeliness’ significantly increases GDP per unit of energy use, health expenditures, and per capita income, where as logistics index in terms of ‘infrastructure’ increases renewable energy source and decreases carbon emissions. Logistics index for ‘customs processes’ significantly associated with the less energy prices while logistics index for ‘tracking and trace consignments’ substantially increases fossil fuel energy consumption. Logistics ‘competence’ index have a differential impact on environment, on one hand, it substantially reduce the burden of fossil fuel energy consumption, while on the other hand, it’s significantly increases carbon emissions. Logistics ‘international shipments’ increase fossil fuel energy in a region. Industry value added and FDI inflows both increases energy prices, fossil fuel energy, health expenditures and per capita income whereas trade openness decreases energy prices and increases carbon emissions, energy efficiency and per capita income. The results conclude that logistics indices significantly linked with the national scale economic indicators that provoke for the green supply chain management in the region.
