Abstract
⺠We analyze trends in freight CO2 emissions in 11 IEA countries. ⺠Many of them experienced decreased coupling between freight and income. ⺠No major indication of decoupling was found between trucking and income. ⺠The energy intensity of trucking exhibited very large variation. ⺠The trends of trucking energy intensity are mixed. ⺠There is a huge opportunity of reducing emissions by shifting toward rail.
