Due to the rising awareness of the climate crisis different legislative bodies have revised and added to laws and regulations around emissions and environmental protections. This forces companies and organizations to upgrade and evolve when it comes to green technologies. New innovations using algorithms and AI provide invaluable tools in achieving this shift. In this presentation I will discuss, in the context of logistics and cold transport, the current and changing legal landscape around emissions, phasing out fossil fuels, and natural protection, and what this means for the future of the field.
