The transportation industry is responsible for a quarter of Green House Gas emissions and 95% of its energy usage comes from fossil fuels. Freight transport and supply chain operations have a significant impact on climate change and air pollution. With last-mile deliveries on the rise, e-commerce deliveries in the European Union saw a 25% increase in 2020 due to the pandemic, and this trend is expected to continue. It’s important to note that the transport sector provides over 10,000,000 jobs (4.5% of the total workforce) and represents 4.6% of the EU\u2019s gross domestic product (GDP). To ensure sustainable socio-economic development while respecting planetary boundaries, it’s crucial for the courier and transportation sector to transition to greener operations.<\/p>

The “Couriers Go Green” initiative aims to develop a plan, including a training and certification scheme, that will empower the targeted organizations and their staff to improve their environmental impact sustainably by equipping them with the necessary skills and motivation.<\/p>

The European Union is making significant efforts to promote the transport sector\u2019s green transition and implement sustainable logistics and supply chain management practices, including urban deliveries and last-mile transportation.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
