We study a buyer’s strategies to incentivize environmental quality investment in a three-tier supply chain. Environmental quality of the end product depends on the environmental performances of both the tier 1 and tier 2 suppliers. A higher environmental quality produces an increased demand for the end product; and hence for the whole supply chain. In this setting, we compare the effectiveness of a delegation vs. a full control model from the buyer’s cost-sharing perspective. Our analysis considers how the buyer’s and the suppliers’ decisions are impacted by the market opportunity for improved quality and the division of the supply chain margin between the three parties.

Stimulating Different Types of Eco-Innovation in the UK: Government Policies and Firm Motivations
Demirel, Pelin; Kesidou, Effie (Science And Technology Policies Research Center, Middle East Technical University (Ankara, Turkey), 2012)
In this paper, we adopt a recent OECD framework and examine the role of external policy tools and internal firm specific factors for stimulating three different types of eco-innovations that range on a spectrum of lower to higher technological and environmental impact: End-of-Pipeline Pollution Control Technologies, Integrated Cleaner Production Technologies and Environmental R&D. Using a novel firm-level dataset from a DEFRA survey, we estimate a Tobit model, which provides empirical evidence showing that ...
Multiple objective energy and environmental policy analysis
Yıldız, Şahan; Köksalan, Murat; Department of Industrial Engineering (2015)
Energy policy research studies need to consider several objectives since the energy sector is closely related with economy, environmental quality, and supply security. Before 70s, studies were based on a one-way relationship between the energy sector and the economy, and they tried to estimate energy demand given the level of economic activity. However, the Arabic oil embargo, which doubled the energy prices, resulted in an economic crisis since energy is an intermediate good which is used in almost all pro...
Proactive environmental strategy in a supply chain context: the mediating role of investments
Akın Ateş, Melek; Bloemhof, Jacqueline; van Raaij, Erik M.; WYNSTRA, Finn (2012-01-01)
There is a growing body of knowledge on the link between environmental management and supply chain management, but there is contradicting evidence on the impact of a proactive environmental strategy on environmental performance. Therefore, this paper investigates the impact of proactive environmental strategy on environmental performance as mediated by environmental investments. We also consider the antecedents of the adoption of proactive environmental strategy. We develop and test hypotheses, using data c...
Modelling of Dredged materal disposal Mersin Bay Case Study
Sadighrad, Ehsan; Tuğrul, Süleyman; Salihoğlu, Barış (null; 2015-10-10)
Management of disposal of solid materials dredged from harbours, shipping channels and coastal environments for different purposes is essential for sustainable land/marine ecosystems, keeping economic values and human quality of life along coastal areas. Therefore, comprehensive and detailed investigations of geo-chemical properties of organic/inorganic pollutants in dredged materials and principal physical and bio-geo-chemical properties of the selected disposal sites are commonly a prerequisite for any pl...
Determinants of managerial responses to environmental issues in small and medium enterprises in Turkey
Ünver, Tayyar Can; Aşcıgil, Semra Feriha; Department of Business Administration (2008)

Turkey has been undergoing major economic and environmental developments since 1990ies. SMEs play a significant role in the Turkish economy, constituting 99.8% of total enterprises in number. Even though most managers overlook their firms’ particular impacts, SMEs’ cumulative effect on natural environment is s...
