32 Discussion Substance Transport is an exceptional sector as the CO 2 intensity of the economy has not decreased The countries receiving a lot of EU structural funding have had high CO 2 growth rates USA has had decreasing transport CO 2 intensity figures but was still twice as high as EU15 in 1999 Methodology Extrapolation should be used very cautiously even in what if studies and even with BAU analyses
