Abstract
This paper presents the concept of the closed-loop supply chain we call Inverse Supply Chain which adds the reverse system to the past supply chain. The life cycle management for consumer products is very difficult, and the cooperation of consumers is indispensable to build the society oriented to recycling of resources. In this paper, the various incentives to the consumer actions contributed to the improvement of QCD control in recycling was discussed. As a system that incentives are given to the consumers, we propose Green Mileage System
