摘要

Projections of energy use and greenhouse gas emissions for industrialized countries typicallyshow continued growth in vehicle ownership, vehicle use and overall travel demand. Thisrepresents a continuation of trends from the 1970s through the early 2000s. This paper presents adescriptive analysis of cross-national passenger transport trends in six industrialized countries,providing evidence to suggest that these trends may have halted. Through decomposingpassenger transport energy use into activity, mode structure and energy intensity, we show thatincreases in total activity (passenger travel) have been the driving force behind increased energyuse, offset somewhat by declining energy intensity. We show that total activity growth has haltedrelative to GDP in recent years in the six countries examined. If these trends continue, it ispossible that accelerated decline in the energy intensity of car travel; stagnation in total travel percapita; some shifts back to rail and bus modes; and at least somewhat less carbon per unit ofenergy could leave the absolute levels of emissions in 2020 or 2030 lower than today.
