In the context of the global transition to sustainable development and the strengthening of environmental requirements for logistics activities, the issue of reducing the carbon footprint of warehouse processes, which are characterized by high energy intensity and a significant contribution to greenhouse gas emissions, becomes particularly relevant. Modern warehouses represent a key element of supply chains, and the efficiency of their management directly affects both the economic performance of enterprises and their environmental responsibility. The purpose of this article is to analyze and systematize modern approaches to warehouse process management aimed at reducing the carbon footprint while maintaining operational efficiency. The methodological framework of the study is based on methods of systemic and comparative analysis, content analysis of scientific publications by domestic and foreign authors, as well as elements of logistics process modeling. The paper examines the main directions of warehouse activity environmentalization, including optimization of warehouse layout, implementation of energy-efficient and digital technologies, use of renewable energy sources, and application of environmentally oriented key performance indicators within the management system. As a result of the study, key factors influencing the formation of the warehouse carbon footprint were identified, and managerial tools were determined that make it possible to reduce carbon dioxide emissions at various stages of the warehouse cycle. A conceptual model of low-carbon warehouse process management is proposed, based on the integration of environmental criteria into managerial decision-making. The findings obtained are of practical significance for specialists in warehouse logistics and sustainable development.
