Welcome to module 3! We are delighted you are here! This module we will start exploring the transportation sector. You will learn about global trends and different sectors including freight and aviation as well as the ongoing efforts to decarbonize them.

Sections:

The content of this module is split into seven sections:

1. Emissions in transportation
2. Composition of GHG emissions
3. Global CO2 emissions from transport: Part 1
4. Global CO2 emissions from transport: Part 2
5. Decarbonizing freight: Part 1
6. Decarbonizing freight: Part 2
7. Aviation, climate and carbon

We have prepared quizzes and exercises for these modules, as well as an additional guest interview with Prof. Yu Zhang who will share more about the behind the scenes efforts to decarbonize aviation.

Learning outcomes:

After following this weeks material, you should have an understanding of these main points:

• Transport related impacts on the environment,
• Global trends in GHG emissions from the transportation sector, and what factors contribute to these emissions,
• The different low-emission technologies that could be implemented for the transport sector,
• Perform calculations relating to GHG emissions from transport.
