Transport within earth system boundaries
"A sustainable mobility and transport system requires assessment of its impacts on climate, land, water, aerosols, amongst others, to ensure that it operates within safe and just boundaries."
Within a finite ecospace "transport (road, rail, air, water) using fossil fuels needs to be phased out as soon as possible to avoid too much of a transgression of the 1.5 °C target."
