Title -  Green Corridors: Policy and Infrastructure for Low-Carbon Transport Transport is one of the largest sources of  carbon emissions  across the world. Ships, trucks, trains, and city traffic move goods and people every day, but they also consume large amounts of fuel and pollute the air. As trade grows and cities expand, cutting emissions from transport has become a priority for governments and planners. Green corridors address this challenge by focusing on specific, high-traffic routes where cleaner fuels, better infrastructure, and clear policies are applied together. This article explains what green corridors are, how policy and infrastructure support them, and why they matter for future transport systems. https://www.phdcci.in/blog/green-corridors-policy-and-infrastructure-for-low-carbon-transport/

Title -  Digital Freight Platforms: Optimising Routes, Reducing Carbon Emissions Freight movement is growing fast as e-commerce, manufacturing, and trade continue to expand. More goods on the road also mean higher fuel use, longer travel times, and rising carbon emissions. Traditional freight systems rely heavily on manual planning, phone calls, and fixed routes. These methods often lead to empty return trips, traffic delays, and unnecessary fuel burn, which increase costs and environmental impact. https://www.phdcci.in/blog/digital-freight-platforms-optimising-routes-reducing-carbon-emissions/

Title -  Cold Chain Infrastructure: A Critical Need for India’s Food Security Introduction India produces a large amount of food every year, yet a big share never reaches consumers in good condition. Fruits, vegetables, dairy, meat, and fish often spoil before they can be sold, mainly because they are not stored or transported at the right temperature. This loss affects food availability, raises prices, and reduces the income earned by farmers and producers. Cold chain infrastructure plays a key role in fixing this gap. By keeping food fresh from farms to markets, cold storage and refrigerated transport help reduce waste and protect quality. As India’s population grows and climate patterns become less predictable, strong cold chain systems are becoming essential for food security, stable supply, and better use of agricultural output. Understanding Cold Chain Infrastructure in India Cold chain infrastructure refers to the systems that keep perishable products at the right temperatur...
