Although NO x emissions were reduced by just under 60% between 1990 and 2015, the NO x load in 28 German cities and agglomerations is still higher—in some cases significantly higher—than the EU-imposed limit values. In this sense, modern and clean diesel technology can also contribute to climate protection.

Researchers at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) have found that the per-mile greenhouse gas emissions of an electric autonomous taxi in 2030 would be 63-82% lower than a projected 2030 hybrid vehicle driven as a privately owned car and 90% lower than a 2014 gasoline-powered private vehicle.

In contrast, by encouraging a large increase in trip sharing, transit use, and active transport through policies that support compact, mixed use development, cities worldwide could save an estimated $5 trillion annually by 2050 while improving livability and increasing the likelihood of meeting climate change targets.

As long as fossil fuels remain the predominant producer of electricity in major economies such as the US and China, the impact of electrified vehicles on climate change is negligible after taking into account the energy required for the production and recycling of batteries. The third relevant area of technology is electric power generation.

In late 2022, I was invited to go to Ghana with a friend researching work by the Ghanaian artist Ibrahim Mahama, who first made a splash at the 56th Venice Biennale in 2015. Since most days were over 90 degrees, Uber and taxis were our best bets for getting around.

Among the actions taken by the national government are subsidies for hybrid taxis; incentives to purchase electric buses; and support for electric car-sharing programs. In September 2015, the Israeli government approved an updated, ILS 330-million (US$93-milion) Action Plan to Reduce Air Pollution and Environmental Risks in Haifa Bay.

The situation is exacerbated by the physical proximity of a wide range of hazardous material sources—including an ammonia tank and fuel farms—to population centers, and by topographic and climatic conditions that aggravate air pollutant dispersion. MoEP thus launched a new environmental action plan for Haifa Bay in 2015.

For the current fiscal year, the program is slated to invest approximately $90 million to encourage the development and use of new technologies, and alternative and renewable fuels, to help the state meet its climate-change goals. It is paid for through surcharges on vehicle and boat registrations, and smog check and license plate fees.

We also mined or extracted and burned coal and oil, releasing millions of years of stored solar energy indiscriminately, altering Earth’s climate. Using fossil derived natural gas, which is a hydrocarbon, means that CO 2 is generated—in direct opposition to our goals for the climate. 3 ] PHEVs using renewable fuels EAA-PHEV Wiki. [
