Abstract
The conducted study examines the environmental impacts of logistics sector operations and possible solutions to reduce them. The main aim is to balance the stability of sustainability principles across economic, social, and environmental indicators by applying green methods. Logistics warehouse operations are also important, because they can also have negative impacts, but this study focuses on environmental pressures. Logistics firms choose to implement green sustainable methods because their major sustainability aim is the protection of the environment. Moreover, by achieving this vision, logistics companies can create better brand image and attract more customers and suppliers. This study included a survey conducted among various professionals to obtain a deep understanding of the topic, with the findings being visualised in charts to improve understanding and generate an interest for this area of study; a table illustration is also provided to clearly present the factors contributing to the environmental footprint of logistics firms and solutions to mitigate them. According to the results given in this article, it can be stated that the modern world shows great interest in the topic of sustainability and takes into strict consideration green methods in order to achieve sustainable operations efficiently.
