The paper points out that there is a need for drastic changes to curb the levels of pollution and damage. The paper then suggests some alternative systems and analyzes their advantages and disadvantages. These alternatives include fuel cells, electric cars and hybrid systems.

From the Paper:

"Efforts to diminish the environmental damage of automobiles for the past fifty years have focused on adding control devices to the internal combustion engine and producing cleaner fuel. However, these gains are being offset by the increasing number of vehicles on the road. Many researchers have concluded that the 100-year reign of the petrol-fueled, internal combustion engine must begin to give way to a cleaner and more advanced technology. The future of automobiles rests in the hands of many competing efforts, fuel cells (hydrogen and methanol), electric cars, and hybrid systems to name a few."
