The formidable challenge of harmonizing economic imperatives with ecological responsibility in supply chain operations only increases with added complexity. In an era where global commerce is interwoven with environmental concerns, Sustainable Supply Chain Management for Environmental Responsibility is the pivotal resource that addresses the pervasive challenge of implementing Sustainable Supply Chain Management (SSCM).

It unfolds a future-oriented perspective, delving into circular economy paradigms, smart supply chain management, and the ethical considerations underpinning environmental responsibility.
