The purpose of this paper is to summarize current understanding of global climate change, to assess the contribution to that problem from the transportation sector, and to explore the effectiveness of public policy instruments against greenhouse gas emissions from transportation. After the introduction, chapter 2 describes the mechanism of global warming in the world's socio-economic context. Chapter 3 reviews the contribution of transportation in terms of energy used and greenhouse gases produced, and also in land use and other activities related to transportation. Current predictions of climate change are also discussed in the context of historical trends, and impacts on agriculture, forestry, ecosystems, human health, and infrastructures are presented in chapter 4, as well as possible catastrophic outcomes. Chapter 5 reviews policy measures to counter climate change and chapter 6 evaluates those measures for their effectiveness.
