Life cycle assessment: Study linkage between environment supply chain management and sustainability of supply chain

Abstract

The most significant impacts on the environment and society of corporate operations occur in the supply chain. Environmental impacts occur at different stages of the environmental life cycle and relate to the extraction of raw materials from the earth, the processing and manufacturing of building materials, the construction process, operation or use, maintenance and repair, repair and eventual disposal or reuse of materials. Environmental phenomena of climate change or global warming are the result of human practice. Global warming causes an increase in ocean temperatures and surface of the book, causing melting of polar ice caps and rising sea levels. Another phenomenon of waste and sewage problems has become a national and international problem. Every supply chain activity in a series of production activities has an impact on the environment. Supply chains can have different organizational structures that reflect business relationships or the level of collaboration between chain companies. This study examines the relationship of Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) with Environment Supply Chain Management (ESCM) and Sustainability Supply Chain in Manufacture in Indonesia.
