On the roads the sequence of trucks goes to the horizon and beyond, while the road transport industry is caught between the cost of the energy and the increase in raw materials costs, a thought goes to the pollution produced.\u00a0 With the term sustainability even if we refer almost always to the enviroment as responsibility in using resourches, it has to be fully intended in three aspects:\u00a0economic, social and enviromental ones<\/b>.\u00a0 We want to remind you that with multimodality we define a transport with two different modalities, while intermodality is a multimodal transport with a unique container, without intermediate reloading.<\/p>\n\n \u201cYes, because when we talk about interodality, reffering just to boat, rail or airplane, between the lines you tend to discredit road transport, which is necessary for the last mile (think about food). Doesn\u2019t it make more sense exploiting the qualities of the various modalities as right combination of carriers in which road transport is still necessary?\u201d<\/i><\/p><\/p>\n\n A combination of carriers that couldn\u2019t take into account the type of good transported. What do we do with fresh and extra fresh?<\/p>\n\n Let\u2019s think about the type of goods with strict shelf-life that hardly reach destination in time. How much time would these goods take on a train? Not all the airports have good rail connections or not all of them can satisfy the needs of the surrounding areas. So the need to involve public decision makers for 360\u00b0 investment. <\/p>\n\n When it comes to transport, everything is not the same, there\u2019s a transport that tend to sustainability and it\u2019s more virtuous and another less virtuous. It concerns techologies and innovation that surely have to be improved from which it will possible to obtain reports and make corrections. And about hybrid vehicles with natural gas liquefied petroleum (GNL or LNG), are they really offering a more ecological alternative instead of diesel? Only zero emission vehicles can decarbonise road transport.
\n
\n<\/p>\n\n Then there\u2019s the alternative energy, especially during period like this one with an energetic crisis, taking into account that one thing is to talk about alternative energy in the customers\u2019 field, another one is to talk about it at an industrial level. Meanwhile, transport companies work by themselves to find sustainable solutions.
\n
\n<\/p>\n\n \u201cAnother legitimate doubt, how is it possible that they gave us a patent that involves diesel techology if vehicles with diesel are not sustainable? We have obtained the patent and our techology are trucks and diesel! So, there are sustainable transport and not. We need to give more credit to sustainable one, regardless the modality, not exchanging sustainability with greenwashing \u2013 a risk for everybody\u00a0 \u2013 awarding companies that feel the responsibility and make them knowledgeable that if they put in place there\u2019s an economic return. I hope I have give you some, well, sustainable thought!<\/i>\u201d<\/p><\/p>\n\n We\u2019re facing a series of choices for the public decision makers that if they\u2019re taken in the context of a national policy, they can influence positively the private enterprises, making them stronger and more competitive. Let\u2019s not forget that the deadline, even for transport and logistic companies, is profit.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" On the roads the sequence of trucks goes to the horizon and beyond, while the road transport industry is caught between the cost of the energy and the increase in raw materials costs, a thought goes to the pollution produced.\u00a0Irreconcilable position?
