Prof. Sachs: Thank u for the work of EI at Columbia re Larry Burns and Autonomous Vehicle. Q: How can we go in direction of shared fleets as modelled in 2012/2013 Study from EI by Burns et al, RATHER than everybody owning. We are projecting 5.9B vehicles to provide VMT after 2100 (when peak pop.=9B) if world achieves its claimed "aspiration" to "be like Americans"). We are working models showing the world can have "american levels" of VMT with a world fleet not much larger than now if a significant % were shared (instead of owned) as modelled by Burns.
