摘要: |
This circular presents the collective results of an effort by volunteer members throughout the transportation industry to develop brief but informative overviews of the primary transportation modes focused on climate change and energy issues. The teams were varied in background, though each worked hard to provide a comprehensive discussion of the current status and potential future of its respective transportation mode. This has been particularly challenging given the ever-changing nature of this subject, most notably in the evolving regulatory arena. The goal of this effort has been to provide transportation decision makers with an inclusive, educated, and objective overview of the current state of the transportation industry from a greenhouse gas and energy standpoint. These are neither position nor advocacy papers, and best efforts were made to include a broad spectrum of viewpoints, from academics and researchers to practitioners and policy makers alike. While each paper had readers, they have not been formally peer-reviewed and therefore should not be used as a sole or primary reference for academic research. / Availability Note: Order this product from NTIS by: phone at 1-800-553-NTIS (U.S. customers); (703)605-6000 (other countries); fax at (703)605-6900; and email at orders@ntis.gov.
