| Summary: | "Climate change is one of the greatest challenges facing global society. The debate over what to do is confounded by the uncertain relationship between increasing greenhouse gas emissions and climate change, and the impact of those changes on nature and human civilization." "Driving Climate Change provides professionals with the latest information regarding greenhouse gas emissions and the most up-to-date techniques for reducing these emissions. It investigates two broad strategies: reducing motorized travel and changing fuel and propulsion technologies. The book concludes that opportunities abound, and that it is possible to reduce transportation-related GHG emissions while creating an efficient and effective transportation system."--BOOK JACKET. |
