View: On the road to taking carbon emissions off the road

In India, the transport sector is currently the third largest emitter of CO2 and will remain an important part of the discussions and efforts around curbing emissions. Under a business-as-usual scenario, the transport sector could be responsible for around 1.5 gigatons of annual carbon emissions by 2050. India has already committed to more than half-a-dozen focus areas for clean transport as part of its nationally determined contributions (NDCs) under the Paris Agreement.
