This paper measures 'excess' car travel for its role in decarbonisation. On average, each
English adult travels around 5,680 miles a year and emits 1,006 kg of CO 2. However, the …

Road transport is substantially dependent on oil. Car ownership is expected to continue to
grow, particularly in the developing economies. The transport sector is therefore seen as …

Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from motorised travel are hypothesised to be associated
with individual, household, spatial and other environmental factors. Little robust evidence …

This publication reports the results of a study on the contribution of the increase in car travel
to the decline in human energy expenditure and consequently to the parallel growth in …

Our study focuses on the carbon emission and mitigation potential in the domain of daily
travel in Beijing. Using a sample with the focus on working class, the average individual …

Transport accounts for nearly a quarter of current energy-related carbon dioxide emissions
with car travel constituting more than three quarters of all vehicle kilometres travelled …

Car travel and associated greenhouse gas emissions per capita in London's outer region
are more than double than the ones of its metropolitan area. In New York's outer region car …

Relatively little is known about the composition of greenhouse gas emissions from personal,
non-business travel at the disaggregate levels. This paper aims to give insights into the …

In preparing and justifying transportation policies, it is not uncommon to make use of
emission factors. However, such factors are not used for cycling and walking because it is …

This research explored the possibility of achieving significant carbon reductions from
personal land-based transport using London as a case study. A profile of carbon emissions …
