Record URL: Availability: Find a library where document is available Abstract: This document summarizes Decarbonizing Transport for a Sustainable Future: Mitigating Impacts of the Changing Climate, a symposium held May 17–18, 2017, in Washington, D.C. Hosted by the European Commission and the Transportation Research Board (TRB), it was the fifth annual symposium sponsored by the European Commission and the United States. The two-day invitation-only symposium brought together high-level experts to share their views on decarbonizing transport and mitigating the impacts of the changing climate. With the goal of fostering trans-Atlantic collaboration in research and deployment, symposium participants discussed policies, programs, and innovative approaches for decarbonizing the transport sector. Along with a summary of the sessions, this report also includes a white paper and four exploratory topic papers which were developed to facilitate discussion at the symposium. The exploratory topic papers addressed creating partnerships and strategies with co-benefits, the influence of the policy environment on climate mitigation strategies, approaches in megaregions, and freight transport.
