Our story
by Sustrans
The document A Moment of Change was a reaction to Covid-19 global pandemic. However this is also a moment of change in terms of climate change.
Transport has seen no reduction in carbon emissions over the last 30 years. We need to see significant change in how and if people travel to their place of work.
This is one of the biggest challenges we face. The wholesale adoption and switch to electric cars is not a complete solution due to the embedded carbon in an electric car and also the lack of EV charging infrastructure.
We need to see a significant reduction in vehicles numbers and the number of trips being driven.
