Comprehensive global decarbonization will require that transportation services cease to rely on fossil fuels. Here we develop a generic life-cycle cost model to address two closely related questions central to the emergence of sustainable transportation: (i) the utilization rates (hours of...

In the intensifying public debate about limiting the harmful effects of climate change, many global corporations have recently articulated so-called 'net-zero' goals for reducing and ultimately eliminating their own greenhouse gas emissions. We first examine the details ofthe carbon reduction...
