We emphasize that this policy portfolio is not a substitute for an economy-wide carbon management policy (such as a carbon tax or cap-and-trade system). Indeed, an economy-wide constraint would ensure that reductions in fuel consumption and GHG emissions are not displaced to sectors not covered under transportation-specific policies.
