As preocupações ambientais da Organização das Nações Unidas vertidas na Agenda
2030 e no Acordo de Paris em 2015, que Portugal ratificou, urgem a que se atinja a
neutralidade carbónica até 2050, para reduzir o aquecimento global e as alterações
climáticas.
A visão estratégica de Portugal, para o cumprimento das metas ambientais pelos
diversos setores de atividade, encontra-se refletida principalmente no Roteiro para a
Neutralidade Carbónica 2050 e no Plano Nacional de Energia e Clima 2030.
Este Trabalho de Investigação Individual visa estudar, identificar e analisar a situação
atual do setor de Transportes, para avaliar os contributos para a neutralidade de carbono na
Força Aérea, com o objetivo de cumprir com os normativos nacionais e internacionais.
Para esta investigação foi utilizada uma metodologia baseada no raciocínio dedutivo,
uma estratégia mista e um desenho de pesquisa de estudo de caso.
Concluiu-se que implementando a redução do consumo de combustível, a redução da
distância percorrida pelas viaturas, a utilização de biocombustíveis em viaturas que sejam
compatíveis e a substituição faseada de viaturas de diferentes frotas, por viaturas com 0% de
emissões de gases com efeito de estufa, compõem um conjunto de contributos identificados
para a neutralidade de carbono na Força Aérea.
The environmental concerns of the United Nations under the 2030 Agenda and the Paris Agreement in 2015, that Portugal has ratified, urge carbon neutrality by 2050 to reduce global warming and climate change. Portugal's strategic vision for the achievement of environmental targets by the various sectors of activity reflected mainly in the Roadmap for Carbon Neutrality 2050 and the National Energy and Climate Plan 2030. This Individual Research Work aims to study, identify, and analyse the current situation of the Transport sector, to evaluate the contributions to carbon neutrality in the Air Force, with the aim of complying with national and international regulations. For this investigation, we used a methodology based on deductive reasoning, a mixed strategy, and a case study research design. It was concluded that by implementing the reduction of fuel consumption, the reduction of the distance travelled by the vehicles, the use of biofuels in vehicles that are compatible and the phased replacement of vehicles from different fleets, by vehicles with 0% greenhouse gas emissions, make up a set of identified contributions to carbon neutrality in the Air Force.
