Abstract

Today, numerous works conclude that transport seems to be completely coupled to economic growth. Therefore, as a direct consequence of economic development, transport sits today as one of the major final energy consumers and one of the most important sources of carbon dioxide emissions. Furthermore, in the absence of major technological change, this unsustainable situation will most undoubtedly get worse in the future. In this chapter, we analyze what different types of public policies aiming at sharp reductions in greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions imply on passenger transport and how they can be linked to new behavior patterns affecting time use and consumption. For this, we use the Transport Issues in the Long Term (TILT) model’s core microeconomic choice model (TILT-micro). Through this analysis, we explain the interest of adaptation strategies for GHG mitigation.
