Description :

Moving goods internationally by land, air and sea involves complex logistics and supply chain operations. In 2021, OECD’s International Transport Forum (ITF) forecasted that global freight transport activity is set to grow 2.6-fold (measured in tonne-km), with freight CO2 emissions projected to increase by 22%.

The pandemic has also highlighted the need for a resilient international freight transport system, even amidst the threat of disruptions to the global supply chain posed by severe weather events due to climate change.

Hear from DHL's Tim Scharwath on how the shared nature of global freight networks presents an opportunity for different stakeholders to jointly invest in greener freight, and how logistics companies can embark on "no-regret moves" that are critical to creating internal momentum while driving shareholder value.
