不可否认，新冠肺炎从根本上改变了包括出行在内的人类工作与生活方式。但，与此同时，这场危机也提供了一个契机，帮助我们将可持续性发展推向上至企业机构下至差旅员工的思考首要，利用危机，发挥前瞻性思考，最终超越复苏。
以下，我们将与大家分享三大深受绿色低碳理念影响的差旅从业人员认为的未来生态出行的趋势走向。
“相关研究显示，新冠疫情促使消费者有了更为强烈的绿色低碳意识，”CWT总裁以及首席运营官Niklas Andreen先生认为：“企业机构在疫后需要设立一定的包括差旅在内的企业绿色目标才能提升客户与员工的满意度。”
企业机构通常会利用差旅量低迷时期，通过CWT的多方位协助，将企业差旅项目进行可持续性优化。去年我们推出了ECO绿途咨询，助力企业差旅和采购团队，更清晰地透视差旅费用，评估差旅对员工关怀、气候影响和组织效率的影响。
“差旅市场有一个热词，‘最后一公里’ ”CWT客户管理部高级总监Rob Coomer先生说道：“人们尤为感兴趣从机场或者火车站到会议目的地的这段旅程，差旅人士如何解决。”
针对市场上的一些最后一公里的呼声，目前市场上出现了一些微移动趋势。例如在巴黎、伦敦，我们看到了共享单车还有电单车的崛起。政府的一些绿色积极推广措施将给最后一公里带来更多绿色生机。
可持续性航空燃料(Sustainable aviation fuel，简称SAF)较之传统燃料更具有去碳化可持续性。
SAF是一个时代飞跃，它可以帮助企业花更多的精力在去碳化而不是碳中和。
在后疫情时代，我们的行业更为聚焦环境保护，我们也在致力于推广SAF燃料的应用。更多航司也在积极推行此类可持续性燃料。例如，我们近期与达美航空签署可持续航空燃料SAF合作协议，根据协议，CWT已从达美航空购入足够量的SAF，以此抵消CWT所服务企业差旅员工在6月5日世界环境日所产生的碳足迹，进而兑现绿色环保承诺。

Green Shoots: 3 sustainable travel trends
The ripples of impact from the pandemic will manifest in fundamental changes to how we travel, work and approach life for decades to come. A focus on sustainability was already in full swing pre-Covid but has moved to the top of the agenda for traveling employees and companies and organisazations alike.
Here are three evolving areas - large and small - that are becoming increasingly important to eco-conscious business travelers.
"Research suggests the pandemic has made consumers more eco-conscious," said Niklas Andreen, CWT's President and COO, "companies who want to meet the expectations of their customers and employees will need to step up their efforts to make their businesses and business travel policies greener."
Organizations are keen to use this period of low volumes in business travel to make their travel programs more eco-friendly, and CWT is supporting them with this in a number of ways. Last year, we introduced our ECO responsible travel consulting framework. ECO is short for Employee Wellbeing, Climate Impact and Organizational Performance, and the framework is designed to help companies fulfil these different priorities. The end-to-end consulting program covers five areas – strategic assessment, travel policy reviews, supplier sourcing & management, change management, and reporting & insights – to create more balanced travel programs.
"There's discussion in the market about how travelers fill in the so-called 'final mile'," said Rob Coomer, CWT's Snr. Director Customer Management, "specifically how they're travelling the distance from the terminal or station to a meeting location.
There has been an increase in micro mobility options to accommodate these final mile journeys, such as city bike rentals and e-scooters, as we've seen in Paris and London, and which is now expanding. Broadening options and campaigns from governments that encourage walking and cycling throughout the pandemic will lead to a shift in how 'the final mile' is taken in the future.
Sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) is derived from sustainable feedstocks and is similar in its chemistry to more commonly used fossil jet fuel. Using SAF results in a reduction in carbon emissions compared to the traditional jet fuel it replaces over the lifecycle of the fuel.
Sustainable aviation fuel is an exciting development in the CO2 reduction arena because it allows organizations to focus less on offsetting and more on overall de-carbonization.
As we see a renewed focus on the environment from within our industry post-pandemic, we are observing a desire to help make SAF achieve the economies of scale necessary to become commonly viable. Several airlines are leading the way on initiatives on sustainable aviation fuel.
For example, we recently announced a partnership with Delta Air Lines on an agreement to purchase enough sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) to cover the projected fuel usage from all of CWT's travelers on Delta on 5 June, which was World Environment Day.
