WP.29 response to climate change
UNECE WP.29 (2008) - a possible strategy for climate change mitigation :
2015. 30% increase of energy efficiency of all new vehicles with the current combustion engine technology
2020. full introduction into the global market of new environmentally friendly vehicles (e.g. plug-in hybrid electric vehicles hydrogen and fuel-cell vehicles)
2040. full introduction of electric vehicles into the global market

Local impactAir pollution has come under control:
Through UNECE regulations and the EURO standards by the European Union.
Noise:Up to 100% of the population in agglomerations are affected by transport
noise above 55db in daytime!
Global impactEnergy use and emission from transport:
Linked with economic growth!
Road transport:Constitutes for over one-fourth of total energy consumption!
BEST PRACTICEEco-driver trainingThe Austrian Postal services reduced the annual fuel consumption by 2 million litres through eco-driver training of the drivers.
