Avoid—Shift—Clean. This is the three-way strategy of UNEP in the area of transport, a sector which accounts for approximately one quarter of all energy-related greenhouse gas emissions.
Cleaner, greener transport is a key pillar of a low-carbon economy. Through its transport programme, UNEP works with developing and transitional countries to enable a shift to a more mobile world and lower emissions from the transport sector - a less auto-dependant society that uses clean and cost-effective technology optimally. UNEP focuses on: 1) reducing the growing demand for emission-intensive transport modes while facilitating the increased mobility of people, goods and information; 2) enabling a shift from more energy intensive and environmentally harmful modes of transport to less polluting and more efficient modes; and 3) reducing the impact of modes through technology, policy and planning approaches.
The global Clean Fuels and Vehicles Database is a
UNEP global public database for fuel quality, vehicle standards and its automotive fuel efficiency at the national level.
This product is designed to provide policy makers and interested individuals and groups with overviews of policy tools and approaches to improving fleet-wide auto fuel efficiency and promote lower CO2 and non-CO2 emissions from cars, along with case studies that depict these approaches from developed and developing countries.
