Reducing Greenhouse Gas Emissions with Improved Public Transportation

Abstract

The growing climate crisis requires urgent and transformative action to reduce global greenhouse gas emissions. One of the most promising strategies is to reassess and restructure the transport system, including by improving public transport and reducing the use of private cars (Givoni, 2020). Not only does this approach significantly reduce emissions, but it also offers multiple co-benefits that help create a more sustainable and equitable urban future.
