You’ve heard about carbon, right? Carbon emissions, carbon tax, carbon footprint, the list goes on. With carbon in the news frequently, it is discussed all the time. However, the element is still very misunderstood. ‘Carbon: The Unauthorised Biography’, directed by Daniella Ortega and Niobe Thompson, is a unique documentary, personifying the element carbon and diving into its underestimated power. The film is more than just a story about a misunderstood element; it is a deep dive into how carbon impacts our lives and the environment. It highlights how important it is to understand carbon for the sustainability of our planet, as well as its vital role in shaping our future and understanding our past. The film urges us to protect our environment, whilst posing the question of how we can act more sustainably now, to prevent environmental consequences in the future. ‘Carbon: The Unauthorised Biography’ is screening at this years MWFF on 23.03.24!

Deep decarbonization requires deep collaboration. Transportation electrification presents a massive opportunity for emissions reduction. Confronting it requires knowledge and ideas-sharing between public and private sectors. The coming together of White House officials and leading voices from across commercial transportation stakeholders, including Michael Berube, Deputy Assistant Secretary for Sustainable Transportation at the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), Drew Kodjak, Senior Director of Transportation Emissions at the White House Climate Policy Office, Shailen Bhatt, Administrator at the U.S. Department of Transportation Federal Highway Administration, John O'Leary, President & CEO of Daimler Truck North America, Mathias Carlbaum, President & CEO of Navistar Inc, Peter Voorhoeve, President of Volvo Trucks North America, Brian Wilkie (National Grid) Paul Rosa (Penske Truck Leasing), Alexis Moch (Prologis), and Nick Nigro (Atlas Public Policy) underscores the critical importance of PACT’s work.

After three years of hard work, the SOCIO-BEE project is coming to an end. Join us Wednesday, 18 September, 11am-12:45pm CEST for this important wrap-up. We will share the technological developments carried out over the course of the project, as well as the countless engagement strategies deployed to facilitate these communities (our ‘hives’), to favour an effective change in their way of understanding and dealing with #airpollution. We will also share, as a final reflection, the lessons learned during these 36 months and recommendations for working with #citizenscience methodologies to foster the assembly of these communities. If you work or have worked on similar projects, are interested in #airquality monitoring or plan to work with communities using citizen science methodologies to bring about #behaviouralchange, join us and participate in this event. https://lnkd.in/diiA9BrX
