Special Issue on” Achieving carbon neutrality of transportation sector”
Countries around the world are making significant efforts to stem the rate of change in the world’s climate. The Paris Agreement sets the goal to limit long-term global warming to less than 2 degrees Celsius, and preferably below 1.5 degrees Celsius compared to pre-industrial levels (IPCC,2018). However, to achieve goal is very challenging, requiring global carbon emissions to reduce by 7.6% per year, which is even larger than the COVID-induced reduction of carbon emissions of 6.4% during 2020. In response to the Paris agreement, some of the major countries and international organizations in the world have made specific commitments. For example, the European Union (EU) is committed to achieving carbon neutrality by 2050 based on the European Green Deal. In September 2020 China undertook (at the United Nations General Assembly) to peak its carbon emissions by 2030 and achieve carbon neutrality by 2060. To date 156 countries have set goals for delivering carbon neutrality.
To successfully achieve the goals of Paris Agreement, all industries and sectors are required to fully exploit their potential for carbon emission reduction. The transportation sector has been considered to have great potential for energy conservation and emission reduction, but it faces many challenges in achieving carbon neutrality. Nowadays, the practice and exploration of carbon neutrality in the field of transportation is still at early stage. The complex nature of the transport sector lies in involving many stakeholders, such as public, government and industry. This Special Issue addresses this issue.
The scope of the Special Issue will include the whole transportation value chain including a comprehensive consideration of the impacts of technology, renewable energy, finance, market, policy, individual behaviors and other factors. Specifically, with the development and application of various information and communication, intelligent transport technologies, such as autonomous driving, cooperative vehicle-infrastructure system and electric vehicles, improvements in concepts operation and individual choices have the potential to contribute to greener transport. In addition, financial instruments could also play a role in carbon neutrality. For example, participation of the transportation sector in the carbon trading market should facilitate the increase of the market and enterprises' demand and investment in green travel modes and tools.
Furthermore, the role of individuals and the public cannot be ignored. The acceptance of green/renewable energy transportation modes and formation of green travel habits will fundamentally improve the sustainability of transportation. In addition, the leading role of government is very important. Based on appropriate laws and policies, the estimation of the carbon footprints of the transportation sector for the whole life cycle can be used to clarify the sources of greenhouse gases and the rights and obligations of all parties involved with the transportation, which is the basis of carbon neutrality management. Other functionalities of government include encouragement of technological innovation, formulation of rewards and punishment measures, establishment of carbon neutrality market and related evaluation indicators, and so forth.
This special issue is intended to encourage scholars and experts to systematically discuss how to achieve carbon neutrality in the transportation sector, so as to provide some references for the exploration of specific pathways to deal with global climate change.

This special issue will provide a platform to share the latest methods and ideas on carbon neutrality of transportations systems.
