While freight transportation is a key part of the economy that contributes trillion dollars to the US GDP, it is a large contributor to air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions.

The participant will gain a better understanding and perspective in how different strategies could produce different carbon and emissions footprint for companies. Findings from this research could be presented at national conferences and published to inform the goods movement industry on sustainable freight practices in lowering greenhouse gas emissions, thus reducing freight's negative impact on the environment.  Mentors: The mentor for this opportunity is Chien Sze (sze.chien@epa.gov).
