The Vehicle(s) in Your Future Jason Mark Director, Clean Vehicles Program. The Transportation Challenge. Oil Dependence > $500,000/minute to import oil Oil imports = ¼ of last year’s trade deficit Passenger vehicle fuel economy at 20 year low Air Pollution - PowerPoint PPT PresentationTRANSCRIPT
The Transportation Challenge
• Oil Dependence– > $500,000/minute to import oil
– Oil imports = ¼ of last year’s trade deficit
– Passenger vehicle fuel economy at 20 year low
• Air Pollution– 160 million Americans breathe unhealthy air
– Local “hot spots”
• Climate Change– Scientific consensus
– US transportation sector emits more heat-trapping gases than most countries release from all sources together
Global Carbon Budget:Dangerous Emissions Levels Approaching
550 ppmv stabilization
450 ppmv stabilization
Sources: IPCC SRES Emission Scenarios Version 1.1. A1G scenario from MiniCAM. 21st century carbon budgets for WRE stabilization curves from IPCC 2001 Synthesis Report, Table 6-1.
