Integrated economic and environmental models for a multi stage cold supply chain under carbon tax regulation by Hariga, Moncer

“…Upon conducting computational experiments, it turns out that the incorporation of carbon related costs, through carbon tax regulation, may call for adjusting the adopted operational policy which results in a minor increase in the operational cost. However, this increase is outweighed by the savings resulting from the carbon related costs. …”
