Decision and coordination of low-carbon supply chain considering technological spillover and environmental awareness

Abstract We focus on the impacts of technological spillovers and environmental awareness in a two-echelon supply chain with one-single supplier and one-single manufacturer to reduce carbon emission. In this supply chain, carbon abatement investment becomes one of key factors of cutting costs and imp...
