Low-carbon scenarios for long-distance travel 2060

چکیده
In many industrialised countries, the climate impact from long-distance travel is greater than that short-distance travel. this paper, we present five scenarios for in 2060, which are consistent with a 67% probability of limiting global warming to 1.8 degrees. The concern by Swedish population, but per capita volume and fuel use could be generalised globally. A key result all require reductions air range 38–59% compared 2017. direct effect on implementing high-speed rail network Sweden Northern Europe was found modest. higher emission reduction achieved if mixed mode trips comprising legs were more widely adopted. Finally, pros cons future aviation fuels discussed, main candidates being biofuel, electrofuel, liquid hydrogen.

COVID-19 Intervention Scenarios for a Long-term Disease Management
Background The first outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) was successfully restrained in many countries around the world by means of a severe lockdown. Now, we are entering the second phase of the pandemics in which the spread of the virus needs to be contained within the limits that national health systems can cope with. This second phase of the epidemics is expected to last until a...
متن کاملLong-distance migrating species of birds travel in larger groups.
How individuals migrate over long distances is an enduring mystery of animal migration. Strong selection pressure for travelling in groups has been suggested in long-distance migrating species. Travelling in groups can reduce the energetic demands of long migration, increase navigational accuracy and favour group foraging at migratory halts. Nevertheless, this hypothesis has received scant atte...
متن کاملTransition to Sustainability: Italian Scenarios Towards a Low-Carbon Economy
This paper analyzes different policies that may promote the transition to sustainability, with particular focus on the energy sector. We present a dynamic simulation model where three different strategies for sustainability are identified: reduction in GHG emissions, improvements in energy efficiency and the development of the renewable energy sector. Our aim is to evaluate the dynamics that th...
متن کاملINDC and Low-Carbon Technology Deployment Scenarios: China
Low-Carbon Technologies (LCTs) play an important role in achieving China’s Intended Nationally Determined Contributions (INDC) targets. According to the result of our scenario analysis, if advanced energy-saving technology, renewable energy, and other measures are promoted and extensively applied, China’s carbon emission will achieve its peaking at around 2027. With proper energy policies, Chin...
متن کاملClustering Algorithm for Travel Distance Analysis
An important problem in the application of cluster analysis is the decision regarding how many clusters should be derived from the data. The aim of the paper is to determine a number of clusters with a distinctive breaking point (elbow), calculating variance ratio criterion (VRC) by Calinski and Harabasz and J-index in order to check robustness of cluster solutions. Agglomerative hierarchical c...
