Assignment 1

Problem 1. Evaluate the factors to be considered to measure green logistics and operations
performance in the following aspects:

 Environmental

 Financial

 Social

Problem 2: Mike B. calculated the carbon footprint of a wide array of items in his book ‘How Bad are
Bananas’.

 A spam email, unopened, has a carbon footprint of approximately 0.3g CO 2e (carbon dioxide
equivalent, the standard unit for measuring carbon footprints).

 An average email produces approximately 4g CO 2e.

 An email with a large attachment results in approximately 50g CO 2e. So an email with a long
attachment sent to nine people has the same carbon impact as flying a tonne of freight one
kilometre.

List down the items having highest carbon footprint in your home and at your workplace.
Suggest strategies to reduce the carbon footprints for each of the listed item.
