1.In the United States, transportation has surpassed the electricity sector as the top source of greenhouse gas emissions, at around 30 percent. But a recent report finds that layering the three vehicle technologies — autonomous, electric and shared — on top of one another could cut carbon emissions 80 percent by 205View0 worldwide from a business-as-usual scenario.
在美國，交通部門已經超過電力部門成為溫室氣體排放的首要來源，約為30%，但是最近的一份報告發現，到2050 w時，將三種汽車技術 – 自主、電動和共享 – 相互疊加可以減少80% 的碳排放
2.While it is wrong to think that self-driving cars will automatically be sustainable, emissions reduction can come when the vehicles are electrified and plugging into an increasingly cleaner grid.
雖然認為自動駕駛汽車將自動實作可持續發展是錯誤的，但當汽車通電并投入增長時，減排可能會到來
3.And if people are willing to overcome the attachment they have to their individual cars and change their behavior, using substantially more ride sharing, public transport, cycling and walking, it is possible to upend the transportation sector and cut car travel by more than half in 2050 and the number of cars by nearly three-quarters.
