Product Description Transport, and in particular road transport, represents a significant global threat to longterm sustainable development, and is one of the fastestgrowing consumers of final energy and sources of greenhouse gas emissions. In this book, longterm energyeconomyenvironment scenarios are used to identify the key technological developments required to address the challenges passenger car transport poses to climate change mitigation and energy security. It also considers possible targets for policy support and examines some of the elements that contribute to the significant levels of uncertainty particularly social and political conditions. The book then builds on this longterm scenario analysis with a broad review of recent empirical examples of relevant policy implementation to identify nearterm options for the passenger transportation sector, which may promote a shift towards a more sustainable transport system over the longer term.Sustainable Automobile Transport will be of particular interest to those in the policy process who are striving to address the automobilederived challenges associated with climate change a growing rather than declining problem. It will have a worldwide audience as every developed and rapidly growing society struggles to address the dynamic growth in greenhouse gas emissions from automobiles.
