    This document discusses low-cost solutions and future technologies to reduce emissions from transportation. It notes that cars contribute 59% of CO2 emissions from road transportation while highlighting potential near-term solutions like improved information and incentives for public transit, ride-sharing, and fuel-efficient driving. The document also outlines emerging technologies like hybrids, electric vehicles, and fuel cells that could help lower emissions over the next decade as supporting infrastructure is established in the UK and abroad.

    Conclusion
    Clean
    Technology is vital Many technologies (e.g. hybrids) are here today- the challenge is bringing them to the mass market 30% lower fuel usage = lower emissions

    Accessible
    Supply and demand are needed Need to engage and incentivise consumers to use transport options

    Transport
    Smart Travel Choices and Smart Driving Modal shift and efficient driving are vital to reduce road transport emissions
