  2. 22. Drivers for Reducing GHG Emissions from Purchased Freight Transports - Exploring if and how Science-Based Targets influence companies to manage Scope 3 emissions from freight transports

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Internationella miljöinstitutet

    Author : Tobias Gustavsson; [2021]
    Keywords : freight transports; green logistics; science-based targets; voluntary environmental agreements; corporate carbon strategies; carbon governance; scope 3 emissions; Technology and Engineering; Earth and Environmental Sciences; Business and Economics;

    Abstract : Despite that freight transports account for a notable and increasing share of global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, previous studies have identified that buyers of freight transport services often do not engage sufficiently to reduce emissions from the freight transports they purchase. An aspect that has not been adequately investigated, however, is how transport purchasers are influenced by new potential drivers or facilitators, such as by adopting voluntary environmental agreements (VEA).
