  • Abstract
    The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that, worldwide, three million people die annually due to the effects of air pollution. This represents a tripling of deaths per year result from automobile accidents. With the increasing technological advancement becomes very important to monitor levels of air pollutants. Thus, in the Japanese city of Kyoto, was established called the Kyoto Protocol effectively in 1997, where Eighty-four countries were willing to join and signed, thereby committing itself to implement measures aiming to reduce greenhouse gas emissions weathering. The relationship of the transportation sector to climate change and global warming have sparked unimaginable experiences about twenty years. Currently scientists are finding themselves faced with daunting environmental phenomena and clearly visible to the whole planet, directly or indirectly, and anticipate in the search for a model of strategic action that minimizes the effect of climate over land and ensures the survival of this and future generations.
