How Cities Transform from Dirty Traffic towards Sustainable Mobility Systems
The transport sector causes heavy air pollution and high greenhouse gas emissions which lead to health issues and speed climate change. Transforming today’s dirty traffic towards a sustainable mobility system is one of the significant challenges for cities. Innovative solutions and ambitious scenarios have to be established to achieve cleaner air for their citizens and to contribute to reducing CO2 emissions. How can the transport sector be shifted from fossil fuels to a low emission system? How can cities improve infrastructure to support this shift? Which role do different technologies play in this transformation? What will the future mobility system look like, and how can it be established?
At this panel discussion, policymakers will showcase successful approaches and share innovative strategies to creating a transformation towards a cleaner and low carbon mobility system within cities.
Speaker:
Franz Untersteller, Minister of the Environment, Climate Protection and the Energy Sector for the state of Baden-Württemberg, Germany
