Topic: Do National Scale Economic and Environmental Indicators Spur Logistics Performance?

Abstract: The aim of this study is to examine the association between national economic and environmental indicators with green logistics performance in a time series data of United Kingdom since 1981 to 2016. The research used ARDL method to understand the long-run and short-run relationships of national scale economic (FDI inflows, per capita income) and environmental indicators (total greenhouse gases, fossil fuel and renewable energy) on green logistics. In the short run, the research findings indicate that the green logistics and renewable energy have positive relationship, while fossil fuel is negatively correlated with green logistics operations. On the other hand, in the long run, the results shows that FDI inflows, renewable energy sources, and per capita income have statistically significant and positive association with green logistics activities, while foreign investments attracted by environmental friendly policies and practices adopted in global logistics operations, which not only increase the environmental sustainability but also enhance economic activities with greater export opportunities in the region.
