Answer:
Climate change is rapidly becoming known as a tangible issue that must be addressed to avoid major environmental consequences in the future. Recent change in public opinion has been caused by the physical signs of climate change–melting glaciers, rising sea levels, more severe storm and drought events, and hotter average global temperatures annually. Transportation is a major contributor of carbon dioxide (CO2) and other greenhouse gas emissions from human activity, accounting for approximately 14 percent of total anthropogenic emissions globally and about 27 percent in the U.S.
Fortunately, transportation technologies and strategies are emerging that can help to meet the climate challenge. These include automotive and fuel technologies, intelligent transportation systems (ITS), and mobility management strategies that can reduce the demand for private vehicles. While the climate change benefits of innovative engine and vehicle technologies are relatively well understood, there are fewer studies available on the energy and emission impacts of ITS and mobility management strategies. In the future, ITS and mobility management will likely play a greater role in reducing fuel consumption. Studies are often based on simulation models, scenario analysis, and limited deployment experience. Thus, more research is needed to quantify potential impacts. Of the nine ITS technologies examined, traffic signal control, electronic toll collection, bus rapid transit, and traveler information have been deployed more widely and demonstrated positive impacts (but often on a limited basis). Mobility management approaches that have established the greatest CO2 reduction potential, to date, include road pricing policies (congestion and cordon) and carsharing (short-term auto access). Other approaches have also indicated CO2 reduction potential including: low-speed modes, integrated regional smart cards, park-and-ride facilities, parking cash out, smart growth, telecommuting, and carpooling.

D.
The block of wood does not stop moving at any time as shown on the chart, so the answer can't be A. or C. and the speed is not increasing so it can't be B.

Seismic waves are waves produced by earthquakes. This occurs
when rocks under the earth suddenly break or explode. There are two MAIN TYPES
of seismic waves called body waves and surface waves.
<span>Body waves have the capacity to travel through the Earth's
inner layers. They have a higher frequency and they are the ones that first
occur under water at the onset of an earthquake. They can be subdivided
into two types, the primary and secondary waves that arrive at seismic records
one after another.
Surface waves can only traverse through the surface of the planet like ripples
in the water. These waves can easily be detected on a seismogram result. These
waves arrive after body waves and they are the ones mostly responsible for
damages and destruction bought by earthquakes.</span>
