Global Climate Change and the
Transportation Industry
Global climate change policies could impact the automotive, trucking, and airlines industries, either directly through changes in fuel efficiency standards or indirectly through higher fuel costs. Policies to promote alternative fuels—such as biofuels—will also have a direct impact on the industry. How will your business be affected by each of the policies being proposed? How should you plan ahead for these impending changes?
Global Insight's U.S. and European Energy Modeling and Economic analysis systems simulate the impact and implications of changes on fuel-efficiency standards. This system, combined with the transportation models and databases, can determine the potential impacts on the industry and help develop strategies for specific companies.
