Abstract

In its emerging role as a climate leader, the European Union is aiming to become the first carbon neutral continent by 2050 (European Commission, 2019). This involves ambitious measures to decarbonise by i.a. reducing emissions in the transport sector. However while other EU sectors have decreased emissions since 1990, transport has experienced an increase. It seems unlikely that reduction rates will be reachd with the currently proposed solutions. Further action and policy change will be required to achieve these aims.
