Description
Speaker(s): Professor John D Barrow FRS
Simple maths can reveal how energy efficient different forms of transport are. We will look at how to drive as fuel efficiently as possible. When does buying a small car help? Does car-pooling always save energy? Simple estimates can also tell us about the relative efficiencies of travelling by road, rail or air - and even by bike.
Part of the Gresham College series of lectures.
