• Abstract:
  Two project objectives – one technical and one educational- were laid out in this project. The technical objective was to assess current inventory of greenhouse gases (GHG) in the six Midwestern states of the nation and to estimate improvements as technology enabled sustainable solutions are adopted with the use of alternative fuels. The technical objective was combined with the educational objective that focused on bringing awareness of transportation among middle school and high school students, training undergraduate students in sustainable transportation through curriculum enhancements and summer undergraduate research at the NEXTRANS center.
