The extension of the waste input-output (WIO) model to analyze households’ sustainable consumption patterns is presented in this article. We estimate direct and indirect emission loads induced by household consumption by the WIO model. The WIO model is much more suitable for the analysis of sustainable consumption than the conventional input-output model because it can deal with the disposal st...

Ride Connect is a tool integrated into the social networking site Facebook’s (www.Facebook.com) event planning feature. Ride Connect helps people coordinate transportation to specific events. We chose to focus on undergraduate students because changes in their attitudes and habits towards shared transportation will lead to a sustainable increase in public transportation (PT) use. Ride Connect e...

For a sustainable people and goods mobility, CISIT (The International Campus on Safety and Intermodality in Transportation) has the objective to realize an optimal management of multimodal chains. In this context, this paper discusses the real-time regulation of traffic in a transportation system disruption.. In fact, the increase in the network size and the presence of multiple transportation ...
