Abstract

The massive construction of social interest housing in Mexico during 2000-2012, demanded constant trips of the population, its relative location has fostered greater demand for energy and fuel by the number of trips source destination. The objective of this research is to assess the environmental impact from the calculation of emissions of greenhouse gases (GHG) that gender transport the massive construction of social interest housing on the outskirts of Mexican cities, during 2000 to 2012. The methodology used was the life-cycle assessment (LCA), this tool allows to estimate the aspects associated with a process or service. To determine the environmental impact was conducted compiling a Life Cycle Inventory, it is allowed to quantify GHG emissions and associated impacts. GHG emissions were approximately 417.173.41 Gg of CO2 eq, that represent about 20% of transport emissions for the same period.
