A carbon footprint toolkit for logistics and transportation
Logistics and transportation is one of the highest carbon emitters among all the economic sectors. Following the Paris Climate Conference (COP21), where countries adopt first-ever universal and legally binding global climate deals, governments start to set emission targets and impose regulations on disclosing carbon emission activities. Campaigns have also been organized to initiate corporations to mitigate carbon emissions and raise public awareness on carbon footprint. This book gives a foundation on carbon footprint concepts, and methodologies on carbon footprint mapping and reporting. It also provides illustrations on pilot implementation of carbon footprint toolkits, as well as case studies showing the best practices on carbon emission mitigation for practitioners, scholars, and students.
