The examples of these solutions include, but are not limited to, emission reduction targets, electrification of the transportation sector, elimination of vehicles with traditional fossil fuel engines, renewable energy sources, and introduction of emission control measures. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: 'Aptos',serif; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri;\"\u003eSome of these solutions are quite difficult to implement due to the associated costs. Certain approaches may seem rather ambitious and need more thorough assessment.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-margin-top-alt: auto; margin-bottom: .0001pt; text-align: justify; line-height: normal;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: 'Aptos',serif; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri;\"\u003eUrban areas are substantially impacted by greenhouse gas emissions produced by the transportation sector. Global warming and rapid urbanization are all contributing factors that heighten the likelihood of compound extreme weather events. As climate change events become more frequent and intense, communities around the world become increasingly vulnerable due to their everyday dependence on transportation systems.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-margin-top-alt: auto; margin-bottom: .0001pt; text-align: justify; line-height: normal;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: 'Aptos',serif; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri;\"\u003eThe book presents innovative mitigation and adaptation strategies that reduce the future effects of climate change resulting from the transportation sector and promote adaptive transport systems to minimize human as well as economic losses caused by climate change. The new strategies are inspired by intelligent supply chain management solutions, transportation network operational alternatives, and sustainability-driven interdisciplinary approaches. The book emphasizes low-risk and high-payoff solutions.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2025-11-20\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9783032005625\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-3-032-00563-2\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235.0cm x155.0cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 523.0\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Nature Switzerland","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44309931491468,"sku":"9783032005625","price":251.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9783032005625.jpg?v=1766064680","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9783032005625","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
