In fact, people have realized that there are many non-green factors in logistics transportation. With development of the logistics distribution, the environmental problems become serious. To meet the requirement of the sustainability of society and logistics, we should change traditional model to a green one.The thesis discussed logistics distribution problems based on the theory of green logistics. The core of green logistics is environment protection and energy reduction. In the beginning, the thesis introduced related theory of green logistics and distribution, analyzed non-green factors of transportation. Then the thesis compared five transportation styles and concluded that highway was the least greenness among five styles of transportation on which needed placing emphasis. It also discussed environmental technique and distribution models. The thesis built two distribution network models based on the green logistics theory. In the end, the paper introduced microeconomic police of green logistics.The standpoint of these two models is to reduce environmental problems mostly, in the meantime developing economics. One integrated distribution center resource based on the traditional one, the other created a new one including external costs. The thesis compared new model with traditional one and concluded that the external cost fee wasn't functional if it was too low.These two models used integrated programming approach and tested in computer successfully.
