A driving style to optimise the use phase of our vehicles - Intro

Nowadays, much effort is put into saving energy. End-users are mostly interest on energy consumption during the use phase. In 2015, transports represented 19% of total energy consumption worldwide. These, employ 99% off fossil energy, releasing 23% of global CO2 emissions (2010) - along with other well-known pollutants (CO, SOx, NOx, VOC’s, particles, etc.) 

Road transport shares 69% of the energy of a sector in which just cars produce 41% of its CO2 emissions. In addition, driving is associated with outrageous ratios of accidents, noise and health problems, traffic congestion, stress, wasted time… Thus, if driving represents the use phase of our vehicles... have we paid enough attention to our driving style?
