Abstract

By far, logistics has had more than 100-year development history since it was put forward by Johnsy Baker in 1905 in Troops and Transportation of Munitions. Most logistics mentioned by people in daily life are modern logistics which means a new-type integrated management combining all logistics activities such as information, transportation, storage, warehousing, handling as well as package and so on. In the west, logistics has been developed into a mature operative mode with wide development in practice as economic pillar and black house in service industry. The world industry has been turned to informatization from industrialization after experiencing industrial revolution, leading to today's green and sustainable development. With the increasingly more attention paid to greenhouse effect, the concept of low-carbon and sustainable development has also become more and more mature
