Prospectus:
I am doing this project for the City and County of Denver one of their goal in their Denver Climate Action plan is to reduce Green house gas emission in Denver through city support of alternative transportation by either incentivizing or looking for other ways to use alternative transportation. Through this capstone I am look to find common characteristics of the successful ones and evaluate to some degree the costs of implementing each program:
What current projects exist to incentivize the use of alternative transportation in order to reduce energy use, traffic congestion, and emissions of green house gases and other pollutants? What are the common characteristics of successful projects or strategies? What is the best way to approach this problem and what are the areas of concern. I would like to examine 4 programs (car sharing, incentivize public transportation, business incentives for compressed work weeks or telecommuting as well as Congestion pricing as seen in London). I would like to identify the most successful programs and evaluation data as well as cost data. Throughout this project I will be also be examining the role public policy plays in reducing the green house gas emissions.
I intend to examine an incentive based program in Denmark where there was grant funded transportation program. This program was an initiative to get people to change their commuting behaviors. The premise of the program was to incentivize one thousand people who regularly drove to work, with a one month transportation card. I want to know if it really changed behavior or if this incentive was not enough.
I would like to look at is Car sharing program; I found a Berkley study looking at the cost impact of car sharing and pass using and the results of study.
I want to examine a congestion pricing program in 2003 started in London, charging fees to drive which has significantly reduced congestion as well as reduced personal travel in turn reducing GHG emissions.
Finally, I found various studies that address the different incentives that are given by companies or to companies in order to reduce commuting to and from their office. I also found an article that address the possibility that home commuting may increase overall emissions, because telecommuting significantly increases the expenditure of energy from households.
Robèrt, Markus, and Maria Börjesson. 2006. "COMPANY INCENTIVES AND TOOLS FOR PROMOTING TELECOMMUTING." Environment & Behavior 38, no. 4: 521-549. GreenFILE, EBSCOhost (accessed January 28,2009)
Schmidt, Charles W. 2001. "The Market for Pollution." Environmental Health Perspectives 109, no. 8: A378-A381. GreenFILE, EBSCOhost (accessed January 28, 2009).
The second cited article is a study done on the impact of economic incentives to companies, response of business organizations to the administration's support for incentives and recommendations by the EPA to regulators.
There is a significant amount of research on the role of public policy in reducing green house gas emissions. I will include the public policy aspect throughout the paper and what role it plays.
