IPCC WGIII Fourth Assessment Report, Second Order Draft
15 A 12 22 12 23 It might be worthwhile to add one sentence, based on the TS, on the
reasons for the consistent upwards trend and its projected
continuation. According to the TS and underlying chapter, this
includes greater demand for mobility with growing wealth, but also
offsets in efficiency by greater use of individual transport and
greater engine sizes. Transport is a key policy area and might
warrant this additional detail.
(Andy Reisinger, TSU IPCC Synthesis Report)
15 B 12 22 12 27 This paragraph is disappointing, as it is limited to technological
aspects of road vehicles. Aviation is not covered. Urban planning
and public transport are quickly mentioned in the following para,
but they should be discussed more extensively, as they are very
important in the long term (urban sprawl induces automobile
transportation for a very long time.) Tourism is not mentioned.
Bicycling is not mentioned.

(Belgium))

15 A 12 24 12 27 "Comment. From my point of view, the prhase: -The development
and demonstration of hydrogen powered fuel cells for vehicles has
started, but deployment is likely to take a long time.- is uncorrect.
In fact, I tink that this prase don't take in consideration the U.S.
President’s Hydrogen Fuel Initiative, launched in 2003, the U.S.
Policy Energy Act of 2005 (Public Law 109-58, Title VIII
Hydrogen) and the recent DOE's Hydrogen Goal-Setting
Methodologies Report to Congress (August 2006).
The Energy Policy Act of 2005, Section 811 (Reports) states: -(a)
Secretary.—Subject to subsection (c), not later than 2 years after
the date of enactment of this Act, and triennially thereafter, the
Secretary shall submit to Congress a report describing— (…) (4)
