SUSTAINABLE TRANSPORTATION

LE TRANSPORT DURABLE

Canada's reports to the United Nations Commission on Sustainable Development have reflected growing concern about transportation. The 1996 report included a section entitled 'The Challenge of Sustainable Transportation' and noted that the most significant challenge confronting Canadians may be that of making personal transportation more sustainable. The purpose of this monograph is to alert the United Nations General Assembly to the importance of developing a shared vision of sustainable transportation and to start building consensus on the broad direction to take.
