What is To be or not to be green? Strategic investment for green product development in a supply chain about?
We study the strategic investment for green product development (GPD) in a supply chain. We develop a stylized two-period model in which either the retailer or the manufacturer could decide to invest in GPD in the second period. We find that the manufacturer investing in GPD is dominating because both supply chain members could earn more and the manufacturer could save more on the environmental tax. Under certain conditions, the prices are lower in the second period. However, the corresponding demand in the second period is always lower than the first period when the products become green. ## Introduction Environmental issues, such as global warming and environmental pollution, have received increasing attention from all over the world. Many countries such as the U.S. and China have issued various environmental policies to enhance environmental sustainability. Environmental taxes are one of the effective tools to control carbon/pollution emissions (Atasu et al., 2013). For example, carbon taxes are worldwide used by many governments to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Environmental issues have caused serious damages to our planet and the health of the human body.
