The potential for road transport companies to implement adaptation measures concerning climate change

Abstract

: Since transport is of great importance for sustainable socio-economic development, it is necessary to implement adaptive measures aimed at increasing the resistance of enterprises in the Transport-Forwarding-Logistics (TFL) sector to the negative effects of climate phenomena. The involvement of many entities and institutions at the national, regional, and local levels is necessary to
implement effective adaptative and preventive measures. An important role in the implementation of these activities was assigned to transport companies, which are the subject of the article. Based on a survey conducted among a purposefully selected group of enterprises from the TFL sector, an assessment of the awareness of the climate change effects and the need to undertake adaptative activities was made.
