Workshop
Transportation Systems: Give way for Climate Protection!
Time: 16.12.2009, 3.00 - 6.00 p.m.
Venue: DGI-byen, Kopenhagen.
Language: English
Transport is one of the biggest contributors to climate change, but widely underestimated. Both freight transport and passenger traffic must change substantially to achieve sufficient CO2-reductions.
Facing the still-growing demand for mobility worldwide, technical solutions alone won't do anymore. Our main questions: How can the need for traffic be reduced? Travel patterns changed? Transportation systems improved? What co-benefits can we expect? How can ideas be turned into action? We'll discuss solutions for developing and for industrialised countries.
Keynotes: Heike Aghte, Initiative Transport Europe, co-president
Paul Beeckmans, advisor for transport policy, Greens in the European Parliament
