GREEN TRANSPORTATION
MAIN ARTICLE: Riding The Green Wave
Transportation is such a large contributor to this country's climate burden that it will be a necessity for the U.S. to tackle transportation emissions as one of the first steps in any comprehensive plan to reduce our national carbon footprint. Some changes will be relatively easy, but others may be extremely difficult and complex, and some solutions will definitely require new technology. In this edition of WEN, Elizabeth Levy explores the carbon emission impacts of various modes of transportation, and some alternatives and innovations that could help reduce those impacts.
MARKETBEAT: Driving Transparency
In April's Marketbeat Jack Robinson extols the virtues of increased corporate disclosure of carbon emissions, and compares the performance of transportation companies that participate in the Carbon Disclosure Project versus those that do not.
FEATURED COMPANY: FirstGroup - Mass Green Transit
If you've ever been stuck behind a bus in traffic or walked past one idling at curbside, the words "environmentally
friendly" are probably not the first that come to mind. But now the world's largest passenger transport company is making bus and train travel a whole lot greener.
Plus: A brief analysis of Winslow's own carbon footprint from business travel and commuting, and updates on some of the companies in Winslow's investment universe.
