Environment and Transport
The development of water, land and air transport has a significant impact on the state of the marine environment, air, soils, waters and the functioning of ecosystems. Exhaust gases and noise, oil pollution, and toxic compounds create a great burden on the environment and poison living organisms. Carbon dioxide, methane and nitrogen oxides contribute to the deepening of the greenhouse effect, rising temperatures and climate change on our planet. More than 70% of CO₂ air pollution comes from land road transport, water transport accounts for 14% of CO₂ emissions, and about 14% of air pollution comes from civil aviation and rail transport. There is a need to develop new environmental solutions that can minimize environmental damage. On the other hand, ongoing climate changes significantly affect the infrastructure and performance of road, rail, sea and river transport. These and other issues will be addressed at the Session “Environment and Transport”.
