Mastering Green Logistics

Next-day delivery, temperature-controlled food chains, cross-border e-commerce—modern logistics is astonishingly capable, but it comes with a cost: emissions, congestion, energy waste, and rising regulatory pressure. Boards are being asked awkward questions: How clean is our network? What’s our plan for Scope 3? Can we cut fuel and carbon without compromising service? The uncomfortable truth is that efficiency and sustainability are no longer trade-offs; they’re the same problem seen from two angles—cost on one side, carbon on the other.

LPC Training’s Mastering Green Logistics is a five-day, hands-on programme for practitioners who need practical answers. We start with the big picture—standards, disclosures, and why KPIs like gCO₂/t-km actually matter—then translate it into operational moves you can deploy on Monday morning. You’ll benchmark footprints using recognised frameworks (GHG Protocol, ISO), compare modal trade-offs with real constraints, and learn how routing, capacity utilisation, and warehouse design shift both cost and carbon. We dig into urban freight, food logistics, alternative fuels, and the messy realities of e-commerce, before turning to reverse logistics and circular flows that keep materials in play and waste out of landfills.

By the end, you’ll leave with a pragmatic playbook: how to set targets, pick the right levers, build the business case, and align policy, partners, and people—so your network gets cleaner, leaner, and future-ready without breaking service promises.
