The Challenge: Transportation Inequities and Climate Impact

Transportation Inequities

Millions of underserved communities lack access to affordable and efficient transportation, limiting their opportunities for education, employment, and healthcare.

Environmental Impact

Transportation accounts for nearly 29% of global greenhouse gas emissions. Transitioning to electric and sustainable mobility systems is key to combating climate change

Infrastructure

Integrating cycling paths with green public spaces fosters sustainable mobility, encourages eco-tourism, and enhances urban biodiversity, contributing to environmental conservation and healthier communities.
