Transport Policy and the Environment: Six case studies (Energy and Infrastructure Set)

Transport Policy and the Environment: Six case studies (Energy and Infrastructure Set) Review

Transport, in particular the motor vehicle, is a major source of environmental disruption and, in the developed world, accounts for 30 per cent of energy consumption. In most countries, transport policy is a major government concern, yet it is rare for decisions to be made outside a narrow set of sectoral considerations. This book, commissioned by the OECD, looks at seven countries; the UK, the USA, West Germany, France, The Netherlands, Greece and Italy. Each case demonstrates, in different ways, the problems in transport policies produced by the failure is a consequence of departmental division: transport, the environment, the exchequer, etc. all have their own, quite separate ministries. Here, a group of economists have demonstrated both the folly of such partial ways of thinking and, in writing their critiques of specific disaster, have provided models for ways forward.

The 2011 Import and Export Market for Machines for Making Paper Cartons, Boxes, Cases, Tubes, Drums, or Similar Containers in Germany

The 2011 Import and Export Market for Machines for Making Paper Cartons, Boxes, Cases, Tubes, Drums, or Similar Containers in Germany Review

On the demand side, exporters and strategic planners focusing on machines for making paper cartons, boxes, cases, tubes, drums, or similar containers in Germany face a number of questions. Which countries are supplying machines for making paper cartons, boxes, cases, tubes, drums, or similar containers to Germany? How important is Germany compared to others in terms of the entire global and regional market? How much do the imports of machines for making paper cartons, boxes, cases, tubes, drums, or similar containers vary from one country of origin to another in Germany? On the supply side, Germany also exports machines for making paper cartons, boxes, cases, tubes, drums, or similar containers. Which countries receive the most exports from Germany? How are these exports concentrated across buyers? What is the value of these exports and which countries are the largest buyers?

This report was created for strategic planners, international marketing executives and import/export managers who are concerned with the market for machines for making paper cartons, boxes, cases, tubes, drums, or similar containers in Germany. With the globalization of this market, managers can no longer be contented with a local view. Nor can managers be contented with out-of-date statistics which appear several years after the fact. I have developed a methodology, based on macroeconomic and trade models, to estimate the market for machines for making paper cartons, boxes, cases, tubes, drums, or similar containers for those countries serving Germany via exports, or supplying from Germany via imports. It does so for the current year based on a variety of key historical indicators and econometric models.

In what follows, Chapter 2 begins by summarizing where Germany fits into the world market for imported and exported machines for making paper cartons, boxes, cases, tubes, drums, or similar containers. The total level of imports and exports on a worldwide basis, and those for Germany in particular, is estimated using a model which aggregates across over 150 key country markets and projects these to the current year. From there, each country represents a percent of the world market. This market is served from a number of competitive countries of origin. Based on both demand- and supply-side dynamics, market shares by country of origin are then calculated across each country market destination. These shares lead to a volume of import and export values for each country and are aggregated to regional and world totals. In doing so, we are able to obtain maximum likelihood estimates of both the value of each market and the share that Germany is likely to receive this year. From these figures, rankings are calculated to allow managers to prioritize Germany compared to other major country markets. In this way, all the figures provided in this report are forecasts that can be combined with internal information sources for strategic planning purposes.

Cities and Cars: A Handbook of Best Practices

Cities and Cars: A Handbook of Best Practices Review

Americans for years have treated the automobile as a form of freedom. People can now live in the country and work in the city. Suburbia and shopping malls were made possible by the automobile. And none of this would have been possible without huge legal and financial commitments made by all levels of government to expand America's interstate freeway systems, regional highways, expressways, arterials, commercial avenues, and residential streets. Our society now has a number of significant diseconomies associated with the individual use of the automobile. Traffic congestion and pollution in inner cities have led to a new wave of policies and practices to improve these conditions. The focus of public officials and citizens in most large urban centers is on public mass transportation, such as trains, light-rail systems, and the increased use of buses. In the interim, traffic management practices have increased in importance. This volume collects outstanding recent essays on all aspects of this complex subject. It includes numerous case studies on how cities, towns, and communities throughout the nation are managing the unrestricted use of the personal automobile. Other chapters discuss the future of urban transportation and examine evolving trends. Also included are appendices containing important information in the field.

The impact of modal shift on the transport ecological footprint: A case study of the Bus Rapid Transit System Ahmedabad, India

The impact of modal shift on the transport ecological footprint: A case study of the Bus Rapid Transit System Ahmedabad, India Review

Ecological footprint serves to be a better indicator to assess the environmental sustainability of the system in terms of resource consumption and corresponding productive land area for a defined human population or economy. Transport ecological footprint analysis makes it possible to represent and communicate effectively the issues of environmental impact and sustainability related to transport. This book presents the use of ecological footprint as an indicator for analyzing urban transport system in terms of travel mode choice by presenting two scenarios (Pre and Post-BRTS implementation, a case study of Ahmedabad, India). It covers the use of Discrete choice modeling is used for mode choice analysis, 4-step transport model for traffic flow pattern study, GIS for map presentation and different statistical analysis techniques. This book therefore can be very useful to urban planners, transport planners, environmentalists, policy makers and other professionals in the related field, to help promote sustainable urban transport system using footprint assessment for scenario evaluation.
