A new study quantifying emissions from a fleet of gasoline direct injection (GDI) engines and port fuel injection (PFI) engines finds that the measured decrease in CO 2 emissions from GDIs is much greater than the potential climate forcing associated with higher black carbon emissions from GDI engines. —Saliba et al.

This change in vehicles and fuel would provide our sought-for zero net CO 2 fueling or energy system. All we really need in addition to fleets of new paradigm vehicles are additional solar and wind generation sources. In addition, we need no more biofuel than what is currently in production now. Conclusions.
