Summary: | 碩士 === 國立臺北大學 === 不動產與城鄉環境學系 === 102 === Climate change causes the greenhouse effect, rising sea surface temperatures, forest fires, floods, etc. Whether global or local impact, both people's lives and property caused by the threat. According to the IPCC put forward in 2007 by the Fourth Assessment Report, it stressed that the global average temperature increases "very likely" caused by man-made greenhouse gases. They turned greenhouse gases constitute the highest proportion of carbon dioxide. In recent years, constructing the low carbon city in the world is a trend. However, transit-oriented development (TOD) is generally regarded a nice strategy to build a low carbon city in transport, land use and urban design area.
In this study, it proved TOD benefits through carbon reduction in study area - Banqiao Station in New Taipei city. Divided into three scenarios, the first is " In the past, not been TOD ( 1996 year)", the second is " there are adequate public transportation but not entirely toward TOD ( 2011 year)", and the last is " ideal TOD toward future." With the carbon reduction effectiveness model, we found that carbon dioxide emissions in 2011 compared to 1996 is rising. However, household as a unit, it decreased by approximately 22% carbon dioxide. The result shows that TOD does help reduce carbon dioxide emissions. The research finally put forward four urban planning and design strategies to ideal TOD toward future, and surveys to verify that these strategies affect how many percents of using automobiles and motorcycles transfer to walking, cycling or taking the public transportion. This result can be as the reference for planners with TOD to build a low-carbon city in the future.
