“…Their focus was only on the steps to achieve the goals of sustainability without the provision of indicators. The three dimensions of sustainability-social (access, equity, health, and safety), environmental (climate change, air quality, noise, land use, biodiversity, waste), and economic (development, efficiency, employment, competition, and opportunity)-have been discussed in detail [3,27,28]. Other authors have published a working paper for the OECD targeting the sustainable development indicators used by national and international agencies.…”

This paper aims to investigate the interlink between city sustainability development indicators and smart sustainable city indicators (SSCIs). While the sustainability development indicators of a city mostly rely on its sustainable development goals (SDGs), no investigations into whether these indicators imply SSCIs have been conducted. SSCIs are critical during the current unprecedented climate crisis and are necessary to facilitate a livable future. This study considers the city of Suwon as a case study. Suwon’s sustainable development policy adopts 10 SDGs among the 17 SDGs from the United Nations, later called Suwon SDGs (SSDGs). By conducting a content analysis, this study found that the indicators adopted from the SDGs require further investigation to evaluate the core SSCIs. Using text analytics, we found that Suwon’s policies focus on indicators in the local environment, such as the employment rates for every age category, even if the SSDG indicators incorporate the SDGs. The purpose of this analysis is to gain more attention from policymakers about the necessity of reconstructing and considering SSCIs as a part of a smart city’s sustainable development. Lessons and practical implications are discussed for future studies.

“…But on the other hand, agro-industry also has the potential to pollute the environment, because this industry produces waste (solid, liquid, and gas) in large quantities and contains high concentrations of organic pollutants (Suprihatin 2009). The issue of environmental strategies has become a critical concern around the world (Vidova et al 2012;Moreno et al 2016). Therefore, the interest of organizations to develop policies related to green logistics is increasing dramatically (Pillay & Mbhele 2015).…”

Indonesia is the largest potato producer in Southeast Asia. Annual production averaged 1.09 million tons. However, productivity is still low, ranging from 16.4 - 18.22 tons/ha. The objective of this study was to propose a strategic planning of the Green Logistic Distribution Center (GLDC) in the potato agro-industry using Interpretative Structure Modeling (ISM). A contribution of this research was that we used ISM to analyze the sustainability policy of the green logistics program which includes social, economic, and environmental issues. The result showed that the objectives such as availability of raw materials (1), supplier of potato (3), market place (5), traffic transportation (7), economic factor (8), and environmental issue (9) include variable linkages from the system. Every action on these objectives will result in a successful GLDC program, while the lack of attention to these objectives will lead to program failure. In this case, the driver power is large but has little dependence on the program. While the other sub-elements of purpose are categorized as dependent, this is interpreted more as a result of other objective actions. With two forms of information, ISM and DP-D matrix diagrams, the deepening of the GLDC program is made possible to support strategic planning.

“…A conexão entre logística e meio ambiente está incorporada na forma como os recursos são usados para gerar materiais desejados ou como os poluentes são produzidos durante cada etapa do processo integrado da cadeia de suprimentos, fazendo com que o gerenciamento adequado e a conscientização das implicações ambientais das OL possam reduzir significativamente seus impactos negativos (VIDOVÁ et al, 2012). produtos desatualizados e geração de resíduos desnecessários, deterioração de produtos e embalagens, assim como vazamentos acidentais que acabam produzindo resíduos nocivos ao meio ambiente.…”
