Transportation in a climate-constrained world
Schafer, Andreas
Transportation in a climate-constrained world Schafer, Andreas - Cambridge The MIT Press 2009 - xiii, 340 p.
Includes bibliographical references (p. [313]-329) and index
In Transportation in a Climate-Constrained World, the authors present the first integrated assessment of the factors affecting greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from passenger transportation. They examine such topics as past and future travel demand; the influence of personal and business choices on passenger travel's climate impact; technologies and alternative fuels that may become available to mitigate GHG emissions from passenger transport; and policies that would promote their adoption. And most important, taking into account all of these options, they consider how to achieve a more sustainable transportation system in the next thirty to fifty years.
