Sustainability

Today’s logistics industry is responsible for 8% of global carbon emissions – many of which are avoidable. In the United States, 1% of total freight emissions come from empty trucks alone.

Sustainability requires visibility

You can’t fix what you can’t measure. That’s why Uber Freight offers customers next generation emissions visibility. The Uber Freight Emissions Dashboard equips customers with a holistic view over their operations, allowing them to monitor emissions across the entirety of their supply chain and account for all modes of transportation – sea to sky.

Sustainability is a team sport

Eliminating carbon emissions hinges on our industry’s ability to collaborate and simplify the adoption of sustainable practices.

More sustainable shipping options—electric trucks, autonomous vehicles, rail, and even better routing—are within reach. That’s why we’ve formed strategic partnerships with organizations paving the way for increased efficiency and sustainability in freight. Leveraging our vast ecosystem, we’re able to serve as the connective tissue across technology, capacity, freight, infrastructure, and more.
