Report finds road transportation sector in Canada likely to fall far short of 2050 GHG emissions reduction target

Green Car Congress

A new Conference Board of Canada report finds that Canada is unlikely to achieve an 80% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions from 1990 levels by 2050. Canada’s road transport emissions were 40% higher in 2013 than in 1990. Meeting the 80% reduction would entail a reduction of approximately 117 Mt CO 2 e from 2013 levels.

Building a Zero Trust Security Model for Autonomous Systems

Cars That Think

Just last year, a half dozen precisely targeted malicious drones managed to slow oil production in Saudi Arabia for days, and more recently, several low-cost drones caused significant damage to oil tankers in the UAE. Modern system-on-chip designs can accelerate product development for performant and low-cost chip functionality.
