Abstract :
Increasing environmental concerns have stimulated us to carefully assess the environmental impact of our products and services at all stages of a life cycle. Green logistics issues are gaining more and more interest, so establishment of a scientific evaluation system of green degree is of great significance to improve green logistics capabilities. This paper proposes the evaluation system of green degree in logistics based on the fuzzy analytic hierarchy process (AHP). As for multi-criteria evaluation indication classification, it´s in terms of the following four great aspects: environment, economy, resource and technology. And the matter element analysis under AHP has also been applied to confirm the weight of each index. Finally, an express delivery company example of green degree evaluation is used to illustrate and validate the proposed approach.
