ロビン・チェイスは世界的なカーシェアリング会社「Zipcar」の設立者。Zipcarはロビン・チェイスが構想する比較的小さなアイデアの一つにすぎない。この講演でチェイスはZipcarをはるかにうわまるアイデア、現代の運転習慣を劇的に変える道路課金システムと州間高速道路をまたがるメッシュネットワークについて語る。

ロビン・チェイスによるZipcarと更なるビッグアイデア

Reducing CO2 emissions by 80 percent within fifteen years is essential to avoid catastrophic climate impacts, yet fuel-efficient cars alone would only cut fossil fuel use by four percent in a decade. Transformative change comes from pricing driving accurately and using wireless technologies like mesh networks, which can enable car sharing, smart ridesharing, and congestion pricing. In London, congestion pricing reduced traffic by 25 percent overnight and has lasted for years. Open, scalable wireless networks could power a new era of economic growth and cleaner transport worldwide.
