White Paper: Net-Zero Carbon is More Than a Cause

More than 7% of global greenhouse gas emissions come from the freight industry — an industry whose overwhelming reliance on fossil fuels makes its progress toward net-zero emissions a heightened priority for transportation companies and regulatory bodies.
