Conclusions • • • CO 2 emission reduction is important goal for Europe and the entire world, but main decisions are made elsewhere than Europe or Russia – Emerging Economies drive the coal and with delay, oil consumption (they repeat the same mistakes of developed economies) We could reduce transportation logistics emissions easily with 20 -40 %, but it means that old fast and oil dependent solutions can not be used that widely. In continental transports container ships are the solution, and if some lead time is sought after, then combining some air transportation element in it (of course railway connections such as TSR from Asia to Europe are useful too). Inside Europe short sea shipping is really problematic – it is serving with fast speed, but consumes a lot of oil and produces a lot of emissions, if roro or ropax alternative is used – again container ships would be good option, but take a lot of time. Railways have special role, and especially dry port concept should be developed with main sea ports (like they have done in Göteborg, Sweden)
