Transport activities have adverse environmental and health impacts, of which local and regional air pollution, climate change, and noise impacts are the most important. This paper is a non-comprehensive overview of existing and potential policies to deal with these negative impacts, with a focus on "international transport". We define "international transport" as those transport activities that are mainly derived from the globalization of economic activity, not as cross-border transport flows in a more narrow sense. We discuss surface transport, aviation, and maritime transport. The overview is not comprehensive: we focus on climate change, treating other adverse impacts (including aviation noise and local and regional pollution from shipping) more succinctly. This does not reflect a judgment on which impacts are more or less important policy problems, but rather policy interest and the authors' expertise.
Policy instruments to limit negative environmental impacts from increased international transport : an economic perspective ; revised version of a paper prepared for the OECD/ITF Global Forum on Sustainable Development “Transport and environment in a globalizing world”, Guadalajara, Mexico, 10 - 12 November 2008
