Now I offer some key items of sustainability in transportation:

  1. Environment issues: for example reduce emission. Methods: use clean fuel, clean cars, full loaded, etc.
  2. PPP (People, Planet and Profit): Transport is one of the sectors of the economy with the most challenging tasks facing decision makers. Decision-making needs to balance economic, environmental and social goals.  Methods: pre-calculations, ROI, financially sound, effective value chain, etc.
  3. Networks: information communication is the most important aim on networks. Non-paper business not only means computerize but also considered the environment. Methods: set regional network in a company; create operation system to manage business in every agent, etc.
  4. Fluency and efficient supply chain. Good business relationship is the key performance and push every process advance quickly is important as well.
