As one of the four global goals framing
sustainable mobility in the Global Mobility Report (GMR),
green mobility aims to reduce both air and noise pollution
from transport, and to address climate change in the
transport sector through mitigation and adaptation.
Transport currently contributes to 23 percent of global
energy-related greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and 18 percent
of all man-made emissions in the global economy. In one
projection, energy related carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions
are expected to grow by 40 percent between 2013 and 2040.1
Air pollution—both ambient (outdoor) and household
(indoor)—is the biggest single environmental risk to health;
ambient air pollution alone kills about three million people
each year. In addition, evidence from several countries
suggests that traffic noise has the second biggest
environmental impact on health. |
