CLAIMBOUND / SOURCE-PUBLICATION EVIDENCE
Aviation
Every card identifies what it proves, what it does not prove, its exact quote, locator, source hash, and local rerun command.
1. IPCC AR5 WGIII Chapter 8 Transport · PDF page 5
Narrow public claim
(medium evidence, medium agreement) [8.6, 8.9, 8.10] Avoided journeys and modal shifts due to behavioural change, uptake of improved vehicle and engine performance technolo gies, low-carbon fuels, investments in related infrastructure, and changes in the built environment, together offer high miti gation potential (high confidence).
What this card proves
The exact quoted statement occurred in the named official PDF fetched on 2026-09-07, and the complete PDF matched the recorded SHA-256.
What this card does not prove
It does not independently establish the underlying model capability, safety, comparison, or real-world truth. This is a retrospective single-maintainer source-publication audit.
