2024 PSR Congress Reminder:

March 11 and 12 at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas

A new PSR-funded research report has improved the estimates of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from student commuting at the University of Southern California (USC). PSR researcher Detlof von Winterfeldt and his team determined student commuting contributes 17,969 metric tons of carbon emissions, or about 8.6% of all emissions from USC. This work develops a better understanding of the determinants of students’ transportation choices, and to explore students’ intentions and willingness to change their transportation behavior to reduce carbon emissions.
