[sustran] Impact of trade related transport?

[sarah.roberts at IIED.ORG]

     I work for the International Institute for Environment and Development
     (IIED) in London. Transport has not been a major focus of our work to 
     date although we did look at the impacts of the transport of pulp and 
     paper related goods in large study that we did on the sustainability 
     of the global paper industry.
     
     We are thinking of following this up with a more general study on the 
     environmental and social impacts of transport of internationally 
     traded goods, particularly as countries all over the world are 
     increasingly relying on export success to support economic 
     development.
     
     I wonder if anyone on this discussion list knows of other work that 
     has been done in this area or people that it would be useful for me to 
     contact while we develop this project. I would be grateful for any 
     information that you could give me on this.
     
     Best wishes
