About this title

Synopsis

For the last 30 years, vehicle mileage has improved very little. During this period billions of dollars were invested in "breakthrough" technologies such as fuel cells, diesel/hybrids and electric vehicles which never came to market. It's time to find a real alternative that cuts CO2 emissions. Automobiles consume almost nine million barrels of oil daily. The analysis and recommendations developed in this book provide a rallying point for transportation specialists, community builders and citizens to take responsibility for dramatically reducing personal transport energy consumption.
