Urban Transportation and the Environment in Kathmandu Valley, Nepal: Integrating Global Carbon Concerns into Local Air Pollution Management (2006)
Final report of the 2004-2005 study by the Institute for Global Environmental Strategies (IGES)

The study presents analyses of the current status of the emission of air pollutants and carbon dioxide (CO2) and the energy use in the Kathmandu Valley which is associated with urban transportation. It also includes a discussion of past trends and future scenarios in order to help identify plausible synergistic mitigation measures.
