When talking about green logistics, the focus is often set on greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. For responsible carriers and logistic companies, an effort to minimize those emissions is indispensable. The climate protection organisation myclimate and Prof. Dr. Paul Wittenbrink have developed an industry solution to measure, manage and reduce GHG emissions from the transportation industry [1].
The aim of the solution is to support companies on their way to reduce and avoid GHG emissions. The solution consists of different modules that help identifying weaknesses and room for improvements. In the consecutive years, the success of implemented measures is tracked (Fig. 1).
The three modules (1) carbon assessment, (2) energy efficiency and (3) analyses of the fleet and the logistic processes give an overview of the status quo of the company. In order to take all employees on board, a training course is essential
