Abstract
Issues on environmental sustainability in every developmental activities of human civilization are the prime concern for all the stakeholders associated with the events. The idea of implementing green initiatives is an effort to attain longterm sustainability results to maintain environmental and ecological balance. The aim of the present research is to review the literature on current state of technological issues, problems, and various other aspects of green supply chain and the need of implementing technological solutions for the same. Based on the literature review, suitable gaps have been found out and outlined in future research directions. Further, the study also consider a case of Food and Civil Supplies Department of Uttar Pradesh and suggest what technological solutions are required for the same.
