33 Transportation Footprints
Why we travel: work, family, pleasure. What mode of transportation we choose depends on time cost comfort carbon

34 Transportation is a big part of the problem

35 Getting there greener Pounds CO2e

36 Seattle to Portland – 174 miles
Pounds CO2e or CO2

37 Aircraft CO2 emissions are only part of the story
Pounds CO2e emissions per passenger mile of air travel

38 Growth of Global Aviation Fuel Use

39 U.S. Airlines Consumption of Aviation Fuel

40 Fly non-stop if you can

41 Cars & trucks Drive slower to reduce GHG emissions

42 Slow down to reduce GHG emissions

43 Comparing Electricity and Gasoline Refueling Costs
An average electric car produces the same emissions as a gasoline car getting 73 mpg Among 77 cities studied, the cost of recharging was much less than the cost of gasoline.

44 Thank you bigfoot tamers!
