CIHT CLIMATES and UWE Bristol bringing the transport sector together to address the future

Global CO2 emissions have yet to peak. To avoid the more catastrophic climate change pathways ahead considered by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, emissions have to reduce rapidly. But will they?

A current initiative by the Chartered Institution of Highways and Transportation called CIHT CLIMATES is considering the following question: 'In an uncertain world, what priority actions in highways and transportation should we focus on in the next three years to meet the unfolding challenges of climate change as we look out to 2035 and beyond?'

This Green Fortnight session is run in partnership with the Chartered Institution of Highways and Transportation. You will hear also from UWE Bristol’s Mott MacDonald Professor of Future Mobility Glenn Lyons, who is the current President of the CIHT and leading the initiative.

Join us for this free virtual event. Sign up is open until 11:30 on the day.

Mobility

For the Mobile Lives Forum, mobility is understood as the process of how individuals travel across distances in order to deploy through time and space the activities that make up their lifestyles. These travel practices are embedded in socio-technical systems, produced by transport and communication industries and techniques, and by normative discourses on these practices, with considerable social, environmental and spatial impacts.
