Today, technological developments have led to rapid industrialization and significant increases in production and consumption. However, in parallel with these social and economic developments, important problems have emerged. The most important of these problems is environmental degradation. Climate change and environmental problems resulting from the destruction of ecological balance are seen as an important source of threat to living life. Global warming caused by greenhouse gas emissions is considered one of the most important environmental problems. In this context, it is seen that the rapidly increasing competitive environment and globalization cause significant imbalances in the functioning of the natural system. Under all these negative developments, important steps have been taken to ensure the sustainability of the economic system in the world. The logistics industry, one of the fastest growing industries in the world, serves as an important intermediary for the growth of trade in an economy. However, the logistics sector is responsible for a large portion of greenhouse gas emissions. Additionally, the logistics industry has negative environmental impacts such as noise, pollution and packaging waste. 

For this reason, when countries and companies take into account the undeniable benefits of the logistics sector to the economy, they have begun to abandon traditional logistics decisions that are not environmentally friendly. Therefore, the idea of logistics being environmentally friendly and the concept of "green logistics" emerged. This study will focus on the concept of green logistics, which includes decisions regarding environmental management in logistics activities, and will try to provide important information about green logistics practices.
