The article introduces a new way to assess environmental risks in transportation called QAERA. It focuses on creating a model for a software tool to help make decisions about risks. The researchers identified 6 key areas for safety and security in transportation. They also selected indicators and criteria to evaluate the risk of causing global environmental changes in the transport industry. By using new expert knowledge and global data, they updated the environmental risk assessment to reflect current conditions. The paper suggests a fresh approach to modeling environmental risks in transportation.
