11. The correct answers ?
• Today: actions dealing with impact on society (Cities),focussing on enabling
ecological alternatives (regulations, restricted areas, emission zones, …) and
its related impact (material investment)
• Example (lean and green project):
• 20% CO² reduction = less polution ?
• If mileage grows less than 25 %
• If 100% CO² ?
• Less polution = less problems ?
• Congestion ?
• Smaller transport modi ?
• What is market volume ? Tons/deliveries?
• CONSIDER THE CORRECT VARIABLES
