"Most vehicles run on fossil fuels, and this presents a major emissions problem as demand for fuel continues to increase. Alternative Fuels and Advanced Vehicle Technologies gives an overview of key developments in advanced fuels and vehicle technologies to improve the energy efficiency and environmental impact of the automotive sector.Part I considers the role of alternative fuels such as electricity, alcohol, and hydrogen fuel cells, as well as advanced additives and oils, in environmentally sustainable transport. Part II explores methods of revising engine and vehicle design to improve environmental performance and fuel economy. It contains chapters on improvements in design, aerodynamics, combustion, and transmission. Finally, Part III outlines developments in electric and hybrid vehicle technologies, and provides an overview of the benefits and limitations of these vehicles in terms of their environmental impact, safety, cost, and design practicalities.Alternative Fuels and Advanced Vehicle Technologies is a standard reference for professionals, engineers, and researchers in the automotive sector, as well as vehicle manufacturers, fuel system developers, and academics with an interest in this field."

"Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis dampak lingkungan dari beroperasinyaMass Rapid Transit (MRT), khususnya peningkatan kualitas udara lokal di daerah perkotaan. Di Jakarta, MRT atau biasa dikenal dengan MRT Jakarta merupakan transportasi kereta api perkotaan pertama dengan beberapa jalur bawah tanah yang beroperasi pada Maret 2019. Menggunakan metode Difference-in-Difference dan indeks standar polusi udara sebagai proksi kualitas udara, studi ini menemukan bahwa, beroperasinya MRT dapat mengurangi nilai ISPU maksimum harian sebesar 27,4 persen, ISPU PM10 sebesar 19,5 persen dan ISPU O3 sebesar 24,8 persen, tetapi tidak berdampak pada polutan CO dan SO2 di area yang dekat dengan jalur MRT.

This study aims to analyze the environmental impact of the operation of the Mass Rapid Transit (MRT), particularly the improvement of local air quality in urban areas. In Jakarta, the MRT or commonly known as MRT Jakarta was the first urban rail transportation with several underground lines operating in March 2019. Using the Difference-in-Difference method and the air pollution standard index as a proxy for air quality, this study found that, MRT can reduce the daily maximum ISPU value by 27.4 percent, PM10 ISPU by 19.5 percent, and ISPU O3 by 24.8 percent, but has no impact on CO and SO2 pollutants in areas close to MRT lines."

""This examination of the role of litigation in addressing the problem of climate change focuses not only on how the massive and growing number of lawsuits influences regulation directly but also on how the lawsuits shape corporate behavior and public opinion. It provides readers with an understanding of how these lawsuits have shaped approaches to mitigation and adaptation and have been used to try to force and to block regulation. There is a particular emphasis on lawsuits in the United States and Australia, the two jurisdictions that have had the most climate change litigation in the world, and the lessons supply broader insights into the role of courts in addressing climate change"--"
