Reducing Emissions through Sustainable Transport (REST)
Proposal for a sectoral approach as a means to increase the potential for GHG mitigation in the land transport sectors of both developed and developing countries.
Reducing Transport Greenhouse Gas Emissions
This document provides a brief update of GHG emission trends from the transport sector and discusses the outcome of the United Nations Conference of the Parties to the Framework Convention on Climate Change held in December 2009 in Copenhagen. It is based on material collected for the OECD-ITF Joint Transport Research Committee's Working Group report on GHG emission reduction strategies which will be released in 2010.
Low-Carbon Development for Mexico
This World Bank study is a timely contribution to the ongoing discussions on the global framework that are needed in order to undertake climate change mitigation actions.
Applicability of post 2012 climate instruments to transport
The post 2012 Climate Instruments in the transport sector (CITS) project implemented by the Asian Development Bank (ADB), in cooperation with the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) is a first step to help ensure that the transport sector can benefit from the revised/new climate change mitigation instruments under a post-2012 Climate Change Agreement. The CITS project is a contribution to the Partnership on Sustainable, Low Carbon Transport. A draft report has been published for comments.
GTZ Module on "Transport and Climate Change"
In October 2007 GTZ published a comprehensive module on transport and climate change within its sourcebook for decision-makers in developing cities. The module focuses on the sustainable transport instruments available that will help achieve both reduction in greenhouse gas emissions and co-benefts. In addressing the impacts of climate change through sustainable transport instruments, cities are also able to beneft from a range of co-benefts, including improved air quality, reduced noise from traffic, increased road safety, and a range of social and economic benefts.
Greenhouse gas reduction strategies in the transport sector
OECD and the International Transport Forum Working Group has released a report that includes the preliminary findings of a work group exploring transport greenhouse gas (GHG) emission reduction strategies. The final report will be released in 2010.
