为了确保物流业能够继续成功地为应对气候变化做出贡献,我们需要一个统一的、针对特定行业的标准来补偿和减少碳排放,管理委员会成员 Tim Scharwath 说。 Deutsche Post DHL Group, CEO DHL Global Forwarding, Freight。从长远来看,交通更加脱碳是推动积极变革的关键。面向未来的物流公司现在应该考虑制定严格的插入策略。有机会将与运输排放相关的碳抵消资金用于物流部门的项目——这种做法被称为碳嵌入,智能货运中心的专家顾问和白皮书的作者 Suzanne Greene 说。本文为加速货运脱碳的系统奠定了基础。货运部门的碳嵌入概念是通过她与麻省理工学院可持续供应链倡议的合作而发展起来的。
货运目前占全球碳排放量的 8%(如果包括物流站点的排放量,则为 11%)。国际运输*近的研究预测,到 2050 年,这些排放量将翻一番,因为在此期间预计需求将增长三倍。企业的气候行动主要是自愿的,缺乏协调,因此货运脱碳步伐太慢。一些货运运营商通过投资碳抵消来减轻部分运输排放,例如林业项目。2018 年,2.68 亿美元的自愿碳抵消市场中只有 0.2% 进入了与交通相关的项目。在运输部门之外花费的资金是有意义的,但无助于推动全球货运网络本身的脱碳。建议的解决方案:碳镶嵌,碳嵌入,其中抵消资金用于解决物流供应链内部的影响,可以成为加速运输部门脱碳的解决方案的一部分。可以大规模应用的项目类型有很多:替代性、可持续燃料的规模化、车队更新或发动机改造可以用低碳技术升级交通网络。提高运输效率可以减少燃料消耗并避免过度排放。所有这些方法都显着减少了气候影响,并有益于公共健康和安全,因此不仅有助于实现《巴黎协定》,而且还支持可持续发展目标。
In order to ensure that the logistics industry can continue to contribute successfully to climate change, we need a unified industry-specific standard to compensate and reduce carbon emissions, said Tim Scharwath, a member of the management committee. Deutsche Post DHL Group, CEO DHL Global Forwarding, Freight。 In the long run, more decarbonization of transportation is the key to promoting positive change. Logistics companies facing the future should now consider formulating strict insertion strategies. There is an opportunity to use carbon offset funds related to transport emissions for projects in the logistics sector - this practice is called carbon embedding, said Suzanne Greene, an expert consultant of the Intelligent Freight Center and the author of the white paper. This paper lays a foundation for the system of accelerating decarbonization of freight transport. The concept of carbon embedding in the freight sector was developed through her cooperation with the MIT Sustainable Supply Chain Initiative.
Freight currently accounts for 8% of global carbon emissions (11% if the emissions of logistics stations are included). Recent research on international transport predicts that these emissions will double by 2050, because demand is expected to triple during this period. Enterprises' climate actions are mainly voluntary and lack of coordination, so the pace of decarbonization of freight transport is too slow. Some freight operators reduce some transport emissions by investing in carbon offsets, such as forestry projects. In 2018, only 0.2% of the $268 million voluntary carbon offsetting market entered transport-related projects. The money spent outside the transport sector is meaningful, but it does not help promote the decarbonization of the global freight network itself. Suggested solutions: carbon inlay, carbon inlay, in which the offset funds are used to solve the internal impact of the logistics supply chain, can become part of the solution to accelerate the decarbonization of the transport sector. There are many types of projects that can be applied on a large scale: alternative, scale of sustainable fuels, fleet upgrading or engine upgrading can upgrade the transportation network with low-carbon technologies. Improving transport efficiency can reduce fuel consumption and avoid excessive emissions. All of these methods have significantly reduced the impact of climate change and are beneficial to public health and safety, thus contributing not only to the realization of the Paris Agreement, but also to support the goal of sustainable development.
