The Secured Document Exchange (SLDE) and a Greenhouse Gas Emissions Calculator were both introduced.
Highlights:
The government launched a secure logistics document exchange platform for the digital exchange of logistics-related papers, as well as a greenhouse gas emissions calculator for selecting the most sustainable and appropriate mode of transportation for freight movements.
The SLDE platform is a solution for replacing the current manual process of logistics document generation, exchange, and compliance with a digitised, secure, and seamless document exchange system.
GHG Emissions Calculator:
The calculator is an effective and user-friendly tool for calculating and comparing GHG emissions across various modes.
It enables commodity-level comparisons of GHG emissions and total transportation costs, including environmental costs, between road and rail modes of transportation.
