The Paris Agreement and Transport Decarbonization represents a pivotal framework for aligning global mobility systems with climate goals. Adopted in 2015 under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), the Paris Agreement aims to limit global warming to well below 2°C, preferably to 1.5°C, compared to pre-industrial levels. Transport, as one of the largest contributors to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, plays a critical role in achieving these targets. Decarbonizing the sector requires systemic changes in infrastructure, technology, and policy to reduce reliance on fossil fuels and transition toward sustainable alternatives.
English: Port Congestion / Español: Congestión Portuaria / Português: Congestionamento Portuário / Français: Engorgement Portuaire / Italiano: Congestione Portuale
Port Congestion refers to the accumulation of vessels, cargo, and logistical bottlenecks at maritime ports, leading to delays in loading, unloading, and onward transportation. This phenomenon disrupts global supply chains, increases operational costs, and highlights vulnerabilities in international trade infrastructure. As ports serve as critical nodes in the movement of goods, their efficient functioning is essential for economic stability and timely delivery of commodities.
