In this paper we explore the possible impact of urban congestion on agglomeration economies for a cross-section set of cities in Latin America. We use travel time data from Tom Tom to estimate wage regressions equations controlling for city size and congestion. We use population in each city in...

In contrast, this paper finds a positive relationship between per capita CO2 emissions from … transport and population density using a dataset of over 200 cities from 28 countries. This positive relationship holds when a … the estimated relationship between urban population density and emissions from transport is different across the two …

Transportation accounts for a substantial share of CO2 emissions, and decarbonizing transport will be necessary to … limit global warming to below 2°C. Due to persistent reliance on fossil fuels, it is posited that transport is more … difficult to decarbonize than other sectors. We test this hypothesis by comparing long-term transport energy demand and emission …
