It is completely wrong,” Fatih Birol , Executive Director of the International Energy Agency (IEA), has stated. Analysis by the International Council on Clean Transportation (ICCT) argues that EVs are the quickest means to decarbonize motorized transport. This is not to imply in any way that electric vehicles are worthless.

As the world continues to face climate change challenges, it is becoming increasingly critical that we transition to more sustainable energy sources. Renewable energy, such as solar and wind power, is a more environmentally friendly and cleaner alternative to traditional fossil fuels.

In addition to high oil prices and the financial crisis, the increased use of new renewable energy sources, such as biofuels for road transport and wind energy for electricity generation, had a noticeable and mitigating impact on CO 2 emissions. Biofuels and other renewable energy sources start impacting CO 2 trends.

Simple, effective solutions that can help lessen the impact of climate change already exist. Rahman, a power expert and professor of electrical and computer engineering at Virginia Tech , is the former chair of the IEEE ad hoc committee on climate change. It results in higher efficiencies: about 46 percent.

OCTOBER 7, 2009

The current proposals by developed countries on the table for the upcoming climate negotiations in Copenhagen to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions do not yet suffice to limit global warming to a rise of 2 °C (based on a long-term 450 ppm concentration of GHG), according to a new report by the Netherlands Environmental Assessment Agency (PBL).
