Low-Carbon and Sustainable Urban Bike Lane Labelling System-A Case Study of Taichung

Abstract

According to the 2001 assessment report of the intergovernmental panel on climate change (ipcc) of the United Nations, in the past 50 years, climate warming, excessive human development caused environmental impact, global energy shortage and high oil price environment, began to promote green transport, among which the bike advocates environment-friendly and low-pollution transport mode.
