Analysis of China's green logistics development path

Environmental issues have become political issues affecting human survival and social development. Green logistics is based on the further development of modern logistics, logistics operations and management of the whole green. The goal of green logistics is not only to realize the economic interests of economic entities such as profitability, meeting customer needs, and expanding market share, but it also pursues the goal of saving resources and protecting the environment. The following is my analysis of the development of modern green logistics in China.

I, the implementation of green logistics necessity

Logistics impact on the environment in the last decade or so showed a sharp and unusually prominent tendency, mainly due to the increase in the volume of material flow, the increase in the speed of logistics, logistics facilities and tools after the large-scale, so that the environment is affected. All logistics processes are related to the environment, and unlike general industrial enterprises, the contact with the logistics environment is wide-area, which increases the difficulty of environmental management. The development of green logistics to reduce the flow of goods in the process of environmental pollution, the consumption of resources. From the point of view of the present science and technology and management level, there is no way to eradicate the destructive effect of logistics on the environment, therefore, in terms of management, it is necessary to take a number of measures in order to limit or alleviate, reduce the burden on the environment as the goal of management. Only in this way can we achieve sustainable development of society, realize the leap to eco-industrial civilization, and cultivate an eco-civilization with double harmony between human and nature, and human and human. Therefore, the implementation of green logistics is necessary.

Two, the main obstacles affecting the development of China's modern green logistics industry

According to the understanding of statistics, the main obstacles affecting the development of China's modern green logistics industry are the following five points.

1, due to China's society as a whole green logistics concept is weak, the idea of green logistics has not been established, the government at all levels to pay far less attention to it; enterprises one-sided pursuit of local effects and short-term economic benefits, ignoring the negative effects of logistics activities on the environment.

2, due to China's logistics industry, the traditional fragmentation of the management system, multi-management, segmented management system, resulting in a lack of effective coordination between the various sectors of the logistics, logistics system intrinsic links are artificially divided, seriously restricting the overall coordination and planning of the logistics system, affecting the coordinated development of a variety of logistics services, hampering the process of logistics socialization, intensification, resulting in a serious waste of logistics resources.

3, is that in recent years, although China's logistics infrastructure has been a major improvement, but with China's economy and the development of the logistics industry, compared with the requirements of the developed countries, there is still a large gap, which to a considerable extent affects the improvement of China's logistics efficiency, is not conducive to the rapid and healthy development of green logistics.

4, due to China's logistics information management level and technical means are relatively backward, the development and application of advanced logistics information technology lags behind, the lack of the necessary public **** logistics information platform. Order management, cargo tracking, inventory inquiries and other logistics information functions are weak, restricting the improvement of logistics operation efficiency and service quality. Technology, equipment, information standards between different logistics sectors are not uniform, non-standardized behavior is quite common, especially in packaging, transportation, loading and unloading and other aspects of the circulation of the lack of uniform standards, resulting in rising logistics costs, waste of resources, and is not conducive to participation in international competition.

5, with the booming development of China's modern logistics industry, the sharp increase in the demand for logistics personnel, a serious shortage of logistics personnel has become a bottleneck restricting the development of China's modern green logistics industry, logistics professionals are also listed as one of China's 12 types of shortage of talent. At present, China's existing logistics practitioners overall quality is still relatively low, the lack of both management and technical understanding of high-quality composite people; logistics education and training certification lagging behind; logistics faculty strength is thin, backward means of education, a serious constraint on the rapid development of green logistics.

Three, the development of China's green logistics path and recommendations

The so-called green logistics refers to the reduction of pollution to the environment, reduce resource consumption as the goal, on the basis of the original use of scientific and advanced methods and technologies will be transport, warehousing, loading and unloading, circulation processing, distribution, packaging and other logistics activities towards green improvement.

Green logistics to break through the traditional, successful, first of all, from the composition of the logistics activities of several basic elements - intensive resources; green transportation; green packaging; green circulation processing; green information collection and management to strengthen the management, to explore a new way out; to set up a new operating concept of green logistics; accelerate the green Logistics public **** infrastructure planning and construction.

1, the greening of the basic elements of logistics activities

Intensive resources for green logistics is the most essential content, but also one of the main guiding ideology for the development of logistics. Through the integration of existing resources, optimize resource allocation, improve resource utilization, reduce resource consumption and waste. It makes the logistics procedure reach a more streamlined and optimized level.

Fuel consumption and tailpipe emissions in the transportation process are one of the main causes of environmental pollution caused by logistics activities. Green transportation is advocated to save energy and reduce emissions as the characteristics of transportation. Through rational selection of transportation tools and routes to overcome circuitous and repetitive transportation in order to achieve the goal of energy saving and emission reduction; improve internal combustion engine technology and the use of cleaner fuels in order to improve energy efficiency; and prevent leakage in the transportation process so as not to cause serious environmental hazards to the local area.

Warehouse management is one of the core elements of logistics management, and its core objective is to improve warehouse operations. Green warehousing is in the traditional warehouse management on the basis of sublimation, so that its management procedures are more perfect, more scientific. From the green warehousing requirements of the warehouse layout is reasonable to save transportation costs. If the layout is too loose, it will reduce the efficiency of transportation and increase the empty rate. So the warehouse construction should also carry out the corresponding environmental impact assessment, give full consideration to the environmental impact of the location. Make the most conducive to the location of the planning of the goods placed in the layout, to achieve the local conditions, make full use of the existing space.

Packaging and logistics relationship, than the relationship with the production of much closer, as the beginning of the logistics of the significance of the end of the production than the significance of the end of the production of much greater. Therefore, packaging should enter the logistics system, which is a new concept of modern logistics. This shows that the status of packaging is so important. I think packaging is also the most likely to cause production waste. In the packaging of many goods are used in the more luxurious, atmospheric packaging. The volume of the box is much larger than the volume of the goods, and ignored the most practical use of packaging - protection of goods, convenient transportation, many just to promote sales of this aspect of the use of gorgeous packaging in vain without taking into account the packaging material is conducive to recycling again. This is a huge harm to the environment on which we depend. We should strongly advocate the use of green packaging. Because the green packaging advocated by the use of resource conservation, reduce waste emissions for the purpose of packaging is conducive to environmental protection, packaging, including the greening of materials, packaging green, green packaging process of three aspects. The main ways to implement green packaging include: using environmentally friendly materials, improving material utilization, designing folding packaging to reduce the empty rate, and establishing a packaging reuse system. After the use of recycling and reuse and regeneration into other useful materials; landfill less land and easy to degrade.

The main object of circulation processing is to enter the circulation area of goods, with the attributes of goods, is an auxiliary and complementary production and processing, most of the simple processing, mainly to change the external form of the processing object, does not require too complex technical equipment and processes. So I think the green circulation processing, mainly for environmental protection considerations of non-polluting circulation processing methods and related policy measures. From the implementation of its main ways - to change the consumer decentralized processing for professional centralized processing and waste logistics smooth docking of these two aspects can be seen, through the improvement of these two aspects, can make the scale of operation to improve the efficiency of resource utilization, reduce environmental pollution and centralized treatment of waste generated in the circulation and processing, and smooth docking of waste logistics Substantial reduction of waste pollution and waste logistics process pollution.

Logistics information is also indispensable for the smooth running of logistics activities. Logistics information collection, organization, storage and utilization of logistics decision-making plays a decisive role. The collection and management of green information is the basis for the implementation of green logistics strategy, through the use of advanced information technology, collect, organize, store a variety of green information, and timely use of logistics management, to promote the further greening of logistics.

2, set up green logistics new operating concept

Green logistics development is inseparable from a strong policy to protect, therefore, must establish a set of perfect laws and regulations and policy system to effectively regulate, supervise and incentivize the behavior of logistics enterprises. Through environmental legislation, sewage charging system, licensing system and the establishment of green logistics standards to constrain, intervene in the external economy of logistics activities; through the development of green subsidy policy, tax support policy, preferential lending policies and other incentive policies to stimulate and guide the behavior of the main body of the logistics, to promote the healthy development of green logistics.

3, accelerate the green logistics public **** infrastructure planning and construction

Want to accelerate the green logistics public **** infrastructure planning and construction, first of all, pay attention to the use of the existing logistics infrastructure and renovation, through the scale, layout, function of scientific integration, improve the use of existing facilities efficiency, give full play to the comprehensive effectiveness of existing facilities. Second, strengthen the macro-coordination and functional integration of the newly built logistics infrastructure. Logistics-related planning should be coordinated at an overall strategic level, and the relationship between various plans should be rationalized so that logistics planning, planning for the construction of yards and stations for different modes of transportation, and planning for warehousing facilities in the industrial and commercial circulation industries can be organically connected and coordinated to prevent duplication of construction and avoid waste of land resources. Furthermore, we should continue to expand the scale of investment in transportation infrastructure, and increase the construction of highways, railroads, water transport, aviation, pipelines and urban distribution facilities. For basic, public welfare facilities, the government should increase investment, the operating facilities should be in accordance with the laws of the market economy, to expand investment and financing channels, and encourage enterprises to operate. Finally, we should focus on strengthening the connection of various modes of transportation, accelerate the improvement of integrated transportation network, and vigorously develop multimodal transport.

Four, pay attention to the training of logistics personnel

For the training of logistics personnel, colleges and universities is the main position to train senior logistics personnel, to train qualified personnel in line with the requirements of the times, colleges and universities should be based on their own characteristics and the market for logistics personnel specifications, to further optimize the mode of cultivation in the training of personnel in the design of the objectives, the construction of the curriculum system and cultivation method system out of The university should further optimize the training mode, and system out its own characteristics in the design of personnel training objectives, the construction of curriculum system and training methods.

The logistics management personnel, they should be composite. They should know both logistics technology and logistics economy; they should not only be familiar with logistics management technology, but also master the supply chain process, and at the same time, they should be familiar with software programs and information technology systems e-commerce technology. This requires them to have a wide range of knowledge, such as cross-border trade and knowledge, warehousing and transportation expertise, financial cost management knowledge, security management knowledge and legal knowledge. At the same time, they should also have the ability to accept modern logistics concepts, systematic analysis of problems and problem-solving ability, a strong desire to manage and superior management skills, as well as the spirit of challenge and other basic qualities.

Operational logistics personnel, in terms of knowledge, should have the logistics of general knowledge and technology, mastery of economics and trade, information science, industrial engineering, basic knowledge and technical methods. In terms of skills, should have a comprehensive grasp of transportation, warehousing, packaging, loading and unloading handling, circulation processing and information services and other aspects of the basic skills. At the same time have the basic quality of hard work, integrity and honesty and effective communication.

V. Conclusion

Consolidating the above, the creation of China's modern green logistics, advocating energy efficient, green, is not only necessary, but also urgent, and China's modern green logistics development situation is optimistic. With the development of economic globalization, some traditional tariff and non-tariff barriers gradually fade, green barriers are gradually emerging. Especially after joining the WTO, the market has become more internationalized, and China's logistics industry will cancel most of the foreign equity restrictions after a reasonable transition period, and foreign logistics enterprises will enter China's market, which will inevitably bring a huge impact on domestic logistics enterprises. This means that there will be a fierce competition in the logistics industry in the future. China to step up the development of green logistics, is to deal with future challenges and in the competition to take advantage of an important opportunity.
