Partnership on Sustainable Low Carbon Transport

This new report highlights solutions which can be implemented in the short term and have the potential to make a significant contribution to a “Beyond 2°C” scenario for the mobility sector. The Open Lab's "Beyond 2°C" community brings together about twenty major companies from the mobility sector committed to making a positive contribution to tackling climate change. The transport sector is a key player in achieving the <2°C target:

The One Planet Summit, organised by the President of the French Republic, Emmanuel Macron, the President of the World Bank Group, Jim Yong Kim, and the Secretary-General of the United Nations, António Guterres, concluded that decarbonisation of all modes of transport by 2050, in line with the well below 2 Degree Target set by the 2015 Paris Agreement on Climate Change is possible but will require action now to enable a comprehensive transformation of this key sector in the decades to come. 

On 12 December 2017, the government of France is hosting the One Planet Summit, to celebrate the two year anniversary of the Paris Agreement.
