Transportation efficiency can be measured in terms of the energy needed to move a person or a tonne of freight over a given distance. For passengers, journey time is important, so an equally useful measure is the product of the energy used and the time taken for the journey. Transportation requires storage of energy. Rechargeable systems such as batteries have very low energy densities as compared to fossil fuels. The highest energy densities come from nuclear fuels, although, because of shielding requirements, these are not practical for most forms of transportation. Liquid hydrocarbons represent a nice compromise between high energy density and ease of use.

Household trials were conducted to test the acceptability and feasibility of the recommendations to be delivered to the mothers in the context of a randomized intervention implemented in Pelotas, Brazil. A first home visit was paid to assess child health and feeding problems. In a second visit, the mother was encouraged to select one or two recommendations to try out over five days. The last visit was used to assess the mothers’ experiences in attempting to implement the recommendations. Nonexclusive breastfeeding, use of the bottle, monotonous diet, and low energy density of foods were the most common problems. The most frequently selected recommendations were those aiming to increase the energy density of foods. Mothers generally reported positive responses to the recommendations. The household trials highlighted the acceptability and feasibility of the planned recommendations and correctly predicted the changes that were successfully implemented by the mothers in the large intervention study.
