Overview of the transportation series

This briefing overview describes a series of events held by the Environmental and Energy Study Institute (EESI) focused on climate mitigation and adaptation within the transportation sector, specifically covering ports, aviation, and public transit.

• The EESI briefing series on transportation addressed climate mitigation and adaptation across three specific areas: ports, aviation, and public transit.
• To reduce the climate impact of the commercial aviation industry during its recovery from the COVID-19 contraction, the briefing highlighted two primary strategies: the implementation of sustainable aviation fuels (SAF) and the improvement of aircraft technology.
• The aviation industry has established a long-term objective to reduce carbon dioxide emissions by 50 percent by the year 2050, using 2005 as the baseline.
