Get Cool with Smart Growth

Increasing the fuel efficiency of the cars we drive is a great cause.

But it's not enough. We have to go a giant step further with sharp cuts in how far, and how often, we drive. If we don't, there's virtually no chance we can reduce our cars' massive greenhouse-gas emissions - now responsible for 45 percent of automobile carbon emissions worldwide.

The message and the math are incorporated in a just-released report - "Growing Cooler" - issued by the prestigious Urban Land Institute in collaboration with Smart Growth America and allied organizations.
