For the first time in half a century, real transformative
innovations are coming to our world of passenger transportation.
The convergence of new shared mobility services with automated and
electric vehicles promises to significantly reshape our lives and
communities for the better--or for the worse. The dream scenario
could bring huge public and private benefits, including more
transportation choices, greater affordability and accessibility,
and healthier, more livable cities, along with reduced greenhouse
gas emissions. The nightmare scenario could bring more urban
sprawl, energy use, greenhouse gas emissions, and unhealthy cities
and individuals. In Three Revolutions, transportation expert Dan
Sperling, along with seven other leaders in the field, share
research-based insights on potential public benefits and impacts of
the three transportation revolutions. They describe innovative
ideas and partnerships, and explore the role government policy can
play in steering the new transportation paradigm toward the public
interest--toward our dream scenario of social equity, environmental
sustainability, and urban livability. Many factors will influence
these revolutions--including the willingness of travelers to share
rides and eschew car ownership; continuing reductions in battery,
fuel cell, and automation costs; and the adaptiveness of companies.
But one of the most important factors is policy. Three Revolutions
offers policy recommendations and provides insight and knowledge
that could lead to wiser choices by all. With this book, Sperling
and his collaborators hope to steer these revolutions toward the
public interest and a better quality of life for everyone.
