Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the past few decades, freight transport on roads has grown considerably because of the quick and flexible movement of goods. With an expanding market due to product specialization, there will be an increase in the demand for freight transport. There are however, several negative implications for the environment (air and noise pollution), human health and other more far-reaching phenomena such as acidification, photochemical air pollution and the greenhouse effect. Solutions to this problem are probed in this book including the stimulation of technological breakthroughs, new transport policies and better traffic management. The book provides a survey of present and potential approaches to reconcile the strong need for increasing transport and the necessity to stop the current destruction of natural resources and harm to human health.

Download or read book Transport Policy and the Environment written by Kenneth Button and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-11-05 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Transport, in particular the motor vehicle, is a major source of environmental disruption and, in the developed world, accounts for thirty percent of energy consumption. In most countries, transport policy is a major government concern, yet it is rare for decisions to be made outside a narrow set of sectoral considerations. This book, commissioned by the OECD, looks at seven countries; the UK, the USA, West Germany, France, The Netherlands, Greece and Italy. Each case demonstrates, in different ways, the problems in transport policies produced by the failure is a consequence of departmental division: transport, the environment, the exchequer, etc. all have their own, quite separate ministries. Here, a group of economists have demonstrated both the folly of such partial ways of thinking and, in writing their critiques of specific disaster, have provided models for ways forward.

Download or read book Environnement et infrastructures de transport written by Conférence Européenne des Ministres des Transports and published by . This book was released on 1987 with total page 163 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La mobilité personnelle et le transport des marchandises augmentent dans nos sociétés. Dans le même temps, la qualité de vie et celle de notre environnement, désormais sujets d'importance capitale, est diminuée à bien des égards par les nuisances du transport : nuisances sonores, pollution, vibrations et intrusion visuelle. De telles nuisances peuvent cependant être diminuées si elles sont dûment prises en compte lors de la planification des infrastructures de transport par exemple, en proposant des itinéraires alternatifs, des écrans anti-bruit, en préservant l'héritage archéologique et la nature (la faune et la flore) La soixante-dix-neuvième Table ronde examine les études environnementales menées pendant la construction des infrastructures et montre comment les résultats peuvent être intégrés au processus décisionnel. Par exemple, en procédant au choix définitif des itinéraires, en évaluant le degré des nuisances et en définissant des valeurs seuils et en donnant une valeur monétaire aux effets.
