In Transport Beyond Oil, leading experts show how to slash that statistic and reduce our dependence on fossil fuels. The authors demonstrate that smarter development and land use decisions, paired with better transportation systems, can dramatically lower energy consumption. John Renne calculates how oil can be saved through a future with more transit-oriented development. Petra Todorovitch examines the promise of high speed rail. Peter Newman envisions 100% oil-free cities through the development of electric-transit, renewable natural gas, and other sustainable energy sources. Additional topics include funding transit, freight transport, and non-motorized transportation systems. Each chapter provides policy prescriptions and their measurable results. Transport Beyond Oil delivers practical solutions, based on quantitative data. This fact-based approach offers a new vision of travel that is both transformational and achievable" --Provided by publisher.Transportation and stateUnited StatesSustainable urban developmentUnited StatesTransportationEnergy consumptionUnited StatesTransportationEnergy conservationUnited StatesPetroleum as fuelUnited StatesTransportation and stateSustainable urban developmentTransportationEnergy consumptionTransportationEnergy conservationPetroleum as fuel388.0973Renne John L1044718Fields Billy(Billy M.)1044719MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910437787903321Transport beyond oil2470521UNINA01635oam 2200433 450 991070514290332120140603133653.0(CKB)5470000002447928(OCoLC)871406160(EXLCZ)99547000000244792820140305d2013 ua iengurbn|||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierGuo Feixiong and freedom of expression in China hearing before the Subcommittee on Africa, Global Health, Global Human Rights, and International Organizations of the Committee on Foreign Affairs, House of Representatives, One Hundred Thirteenth Congress, first session, October 29, 2013Washington :U.S. Government Printing Office,2013.1 online resource (iii, 53 pages)Title from title screen (viewed March 5, 2014).Paper version available for sale by the Superintendent of Documents, U.S. Government Printing Office."Serial no. 113-102."Guo Feixiong and freedom of expression in China Political prisonersChinaPolitical persecutionChinaPolitical activistsChinaLegislative hearings.lcgftPolitical prisonersPolitical persecutionPolitical activistsGPOGPOGPOCOOGPOBOOK9910705142903321Guo Feixiong and freedom of expression in China3481106UNINA
