Intelligent Transportation Systems and Greenhouse Gas Reductions

An Integrated Approach to Transportation Policy in BC ASSESSING GREENHOUSE GAS REDUCTIONS OPPORTUNITIES IN FREIGHT TRANSPORTATION

Transportation services are central to movement of goods and people in modern economies. Their provision embodies many tradeoffs between: economic benefits, health effects, social and environmental impacts. Policies aimed at achieving deep greenhouse gas emission reductions from the transportation sector will invariably impact the balance of these benefits and dis-benefits of transportation. Th...

Health cobenefits and transportation-related reductions in greenhouse gas emissions in the San Francisco Bay area.

OBJECTIVES We quantified health benefits of transportation strategies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions (GHGE). METHODS Statistics on travel patterns and injuries, physical activity, fine particulate matter, and GHGE in the San Francisco Bay Area, California, were input to a model that calculated the health impacts of walking and bicycling short distances usually traveled by car or driving l...
