Logistics accounts for around 9-10% of global CO2 emissions and
will be one of the hardest economic sectors to decarbonize. This is
partly because the demand for freight transport is expected to rise
sharply over the next few decades, but also because it relies very
heavily on fossil fuel. Decarbonizing Logistics outlines the nature
and extent of the challenge we face in trying to achieve deep
reductions in greenhouse gas emissions from logistical activities.
It makes a detailed assessment of the available options, including
restructuring supply chains, shifting freight to lower carbon
transport modes and transforming energy use in the logistics
sector. The options are examined from technological and managerial
standpoints for all the main freight transport modes. Based on an
up-to-date review of almost 600 publications and containing new
analytical frameworks and research results, Decarbonizing Logistics
is the first to provide a global, multi-disciplinary perspective on
the subject. It is written by one of the foremost specialists in
the field who has spent many years researching the links between
logistics and climate change and been an adviser to governments,
international organizations and companies on the topic.
