Overview: Contains contributions from leading researchers and practitioners worldwide concerned with the effect of transport on global warming Proposes solutions to reducing the amount of greenhouse gas emissio.Transportation contributes to roughly a fifth of greenhouse gas emissions, and as a growing sector of the economy, its contribution to climate change, if remained unchanged, could even grow. This is particularly true in the developing world, where the growth rates of air and ship transport are expected to exceed those of the EU, and worldwide objectives to curb greenhouse gas emissions
