Abstract:

This first module on “Transport Pathways to Reach Global Climate and Sustainability Goals” highlights trends in emissions, adaptation and resilience, and sustainability for both passenger and freight transport, while providing initial insights on the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and the Russian invasion of Ukraine. It also outlines the drastic reductions in transport emissions and the deep systemic transformations required to achieve the Paris Agreement targets and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) for transport.
