Companion Website to: Travel Matters: Mitigating Climate Change with Sustainable Surface Transportation. The Transportation Research Board of the U.S. National Research Council has released a report entitled "Travel Matters: Mitigating Climate Change with Sustainable Surface Transportation." The report examines how greenhouse gas emissions from transportation may be reduced, and looks at the capacity of public transportation to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions. The report has a companion Web site that allows individuals to calculate their transportation-related emissions, set reduction goals, and track their progress toward achieving these goals. The site also permits transportation planners to estimate emissions from different types of public transit based on fuel type, and to experiment with scenarios based on different fuel types. The site provides maps by county for the entire United States illustrating average household carbon dioxide emissions from transport.
