The prospects for green logisticsAt the 21st century，with Chinas social and economic development，the logistics industry as a large consumption of energy, fuel as well as huge noised and emissions of serious damage to the environment both to meet the consumers needs and creating a commodity effectiveness utility in time and space, at the same time，which goals are conflict with the emphasis on maintaining the natural ecological balance and protection of natural resources，In this development process, which underlines a strong external diseconomies Sustainable development has become a problem. In the present the growing awareness of environmental protection and natural resources in the context of declining， Building a environmental symbiosis green logistics system have become a inevitable development of modern logistics, as well as a very important part of promote socio-economic sustainable development society. In accordance with the ultimate goal of green Logistics, to explore the law of development of logistics activities, and to build a green logistics system based on the scientific development concept, these field have become an important issue in our modern logistics industry.Green logistics is concerned with producing and distributing goods in a sustainable way, taking account of environmental and social factors. Thus the objectives are not only concerned with the economic impact of logistics policies on the organization carrying them out, but also with the wider effects on society, such as the effects of pollution on the environment. Green logistics activities include measuring the environmental impact of different distribution strategies, reducing the energy usage in logistics activities, reducing waste and managing its treatment. In recent years there has been increasing concern about the environmental effects on the planet of human activity and current logistic practices may not be sustainable in the long term. Many organizations and businesses are starting to measure their carbon footprints so that the environmental impact of their activities can be monitored. Governments are considering targets for reduced emissions and other environmental measures. There is therefore increasing interest in Green logistics from companies and governments. The purpose of green production logistics is to ensure that each machine and workstation is being fed with the right product in the right quantity and quality at the right point in time. The issue is not the transportation itself, but to streamline and control the flow through the value adding processes and eliminates non-value adding ones. Production logistics can be applied in plants. Manufacturing in an existing plant is a constantly changing process. Machines are exchanged and new ones added, which gives the opportunity to improve the production logistics system accordingly production logistics provides the means to achieve customer response and capital efficiency.The proposing of sustainable theory requests enterprises logistics activity change tradition model which consumptions the massive energy, and produce the noise and the waste gas pollution. So the concept of Green logistics was bought out. The development of modern logistics must consider the environment question firstly, which needs make the improvement from the environment angle, namely, needs to form a Green logistics. This kind of the Green logistics is profit for prompting global environment, and which is based on sustainable development.Along with environmental protection laws and regulations releasing and enhancement of the people environmental protection consciousness, the reverse logistics has displayed the great social and economic value and caused the domestic and foreign theorists and the practical realm enormous attention. Green Logistics includes two aspects of the meaning: On the one hand the green logistics are these operations in all process of environmental performance (behavior), on the other hand the green logistics refers to through the effective logistics operational mechanism or see logistics activities as a carrier to improve and achieve organizational or social environment performance (behavior). Correspondingly, so naturally, there are two aspects of green logistics management meanings: first one is against itself the environmental factors in logistics activities and management in environmental behavior. In other words, in achieving the lowest logistics cost not only must achieve a satisfactory service level towards users, at the same time, but also need to protect human health and ecological environment away from the harm impact of logistics activities. second，the meaning is through the activities of logistics planning, organization, coordination and controlling in a series of management activities to improve and enhance the environmental performance and satisfy the organization and green information systems, green supply , green production , green transportation, green distribution, green packaging, green distribution processing and waste recycling and so on. So we must take the corresponding countermeasures to build all-round development of the scientific system of Green Logistics. In the case of green logistics, all of the issues which pertain to regular logistics still apply, with the added factor of environmental friendliness. Sometimes, making products environmentally friendly also happens to play into economic concerns. For example, a beverage manufacturer could reduce the use of plastics by making thinner bottles, thereby cutting down on shipping costs. In other instances, making a product e
