Climate and TDM - The 82 Alliance & GVF
The 82 Alliance and GVF recently released its Climate and TDM report. Transportation is the
leading cause of U.S. greenhouse gas emission and is responsible for 27% of all U.S. emissions.
Transportation Demand Management (TDM) refers
to strategies, programs, or policies that are
designed to reduce drive-alone trips and enable the
transportation system to function more effectively
and efficiently through alternative transportation
options.
By implementing TDM strategies and reducing
drive-alone trips we can improve our climate and
increase the efficiency of our regional roadways.
The report looks at how TDM can effectively reduce transportation carbon emissions to improve our climate. You will find case studies of successful TDM programs within both an employer and community setting.
