Reducing the Cars on the Road and Making the Cars That Are There Electric
New York City is the best city in the country to walk or take public transportation instead of driving, but 83% of emissions from transportation still come from private vehicles. Our transportation goals are to avoid trips we don't need, shift those trips we do need to lower-carbon modes, and improve existing infrastructure and technology to enable even greater emission reductions.
