Transport and climate change: 10:10&Sustrans ask 'Can local solutions help solve national problems?'
3:00 p.m. (BST) / 10:00 a.m. (EDT) 15th September 2010
The transport sector is the fastest-growing source of carbon emissions in the UK. Travel has consequences not only for the climate, but also impacts on health, the economy and local environments.
With car mileage and air travel increasing, the challenge of tackling transport emissions is undeniable, but so is the potential for change. Join Sustrans and two 10:10 Councils - Darlington and Sutton - to explore the contrasting approaches to and effects of sustainable travel plans adopted by local authorities. This webinar will provide an essential insight for organisations embarking on a low carbon journey.
