Today, the transport sector accounts for almost a quarter of energy-based, polluting CO2 emissions, a share that is expected to grow. If no countermeasures are taken, CO2 emissions from the transport sector are projected to rise by about 70% between 2010 and 2050.

The Bridging the Gap report on Transport NAMAs: An Overview by Anne Binsted, Benoit Lefevre, Camille Cauchois and André Eckermann gives an overview of transport NAMA feasibility studies, concepts and proposals as well as recent developments in initiatives supporting NAMAs.

Bridging the Gap has reviewed the NAMA intentions communicated to the UNFCCC from a land transport perspective.

In the lead-up to the Post-2012 climate regime, Nationally Appropriate Mitigation Actions (NAMAs) are increasingly being seen as the framework under which Non-Annex 1 countries are to mitigate their greenhouse gas emissions and to receive international support for their efforts.

The Bridging the Gap initiative and the SLoCaT partnership have prepared a paper summarising the implications of the outcomes of COP16 in Canc

Bridging the Gap has developed a practical guide for developing country governments on how to access climate funds for sustainable land transport interventions. The guidance focuses on climate change mitigation and introduces existing and proposed sources of climate finance in the context of the land transport sector.

The Nationally Appropriate Mitigation Actions (NAMAs) submitted by non-Annex I country Parties to the UNFCCC had an initial deadline of 31st of January but are continuing to be submitted. There have now been 43 submissions and 28 of these make direct reference to the transport sector. The Bridging the Gap Initiative has analysed these submissions from a transport perspective.

This paper provides a brief overview of the Nationally Appropriate Mitigation Actions (NAMAs) submissions made by developing countries as of 4 February 2010. Since February 1 submissions are added to the UNFCCC website every day and a number of Parties have stated an "intention? to do so.

This paper provides a brief overview of the outcome of the UN conference and a discussion of the implications of decisions made there in respect to the transport sector, and how transport can play a more defining role in addressing climate change.
