| Internet Technologies: Better Urban Transportation | Recently, without fanfare, the world passed a major inflection point in the development of civilization: According to UN-HABITAT, more people now live in cities than in rural environments. By 2050, about two-thirds of the world's population will live in large urban centers. Transportation has always been a key enabler of human life on the planet. But urbanization is proceeding faster than transportation systems and services have been able to adapt, and it is not the only factor at play. Globalization, generational demographic shifts, and climate change, the latter fueled in part by transportation itself, are all adding to the challenge of growing inefficiencies of urban transport systems, and therefore adding cost to individuals' lives and the economy. | 2008-05-01 |
