Reverse logistics help to minimise the amount of waste that is sent to landfills, which can release methane and other harmful greenhouse gases.
Recycling also reduces the amount of energy that is required to extract raw materials, manufacture new products, and transport them to consumers.
Reverse logistics can also facilitate the reuse of products or components, reducing the need to manufacture new products and minimising the associated greenhouse gas emissions.
Reverse logistics can also help to improve energy efficiency by optimising transportation routes, reducing the number of empty trips, and using more fuel-efficient vehicles
