Commercial road transport services are at the heart of mobility, delivering economic and social prosperity around the world. It is fundamental that this essential industry has a sustainable outlook when it comes to economic viability, social responsibility but also to decarbonisation and how transport interacts with the natural environment.
For many decades, ·¬ÇÑÊÓƵhas represented its members and the wider industry in making commercial road transport greener, from IRU¡¯s first sustainable development charter in the late 1990s to reducing pollutant NOX particles from engines by more than 98% over the past 25 years.
IRU¡¯s most important work now is decarbonising the global commercial road transport sector.
IRU¡¯s vision for decarbonisation
IRU¡¯s Decarbonisation Vision, adopted by members, outlines the path forward for carbon neutral road transport mobility and logistics.
Based on IRU¡¯s decarbonisation vision, the ·¬ÇÑÊÓƵGreen Compact is the industry¡¯s collective global commitment and roadmap to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050.
