“When it comes to accelerating the sustainable mobility transition, the transportation sector’s time, energy, and money remains almost entirely focused on electrifying the existing car-based system. This unfortunately ignores the myriad other challenges created by car dependence—including traffic, safety, and cost—as well as the tremendous potential to shift many trips to a combination of walking, cycling, and public transport. Relatively modest, targeted investments in alternatives to the private automobile could have a swift and significant impact on travel behaviour, while having the added benefit of creating a healthier and happier population, a low-congestion and low-maintenance road network, and a public realm where people want to spend time and money.” READ: https://lnkd.in/eXN-SKaf

DAY 15 EMBRACE CARPOOLING Carpooling is a transportation solution where multiple individuals share a vehicle to travel together, typically to and from work or other destinations. 1. Reduced Carbon Emissions: Carpooling reduces the number of vehicles on the road, leading to lower carbon emissions and air pollution. 2. Conservation of Resources: Carpooling helps conserve valuable resources such as fuel and oil by reducing overall vehicle usage. 3. Less Traffic Congestion: Carpooling decreases the number of cars on the road, leading to reduced traffic congestion and shorter commute times. 4. Cost Savings: Sharing the cost of fuel, tolls, and parking fees among carpool participants leads to significant cost savings for individuals. 5. Community Building: Carpooling fosters a sense of community among participants as they share rides, conversation, and experiences during their commutes.

Moving Together Improves Your Travel Choices Residents of Buxton and Hope Valley can now benefit from using Moving Together, a new online platform designed to help residents find local travel and transport solutions. It is free to use, could positively impact the way residents get around and even help save money. The platform is focused on shared transport - that is, forms of private transport which are shared with others. This includes giving lifts in your car, sharing a car, using a community car club and sharing your domestic EV charger. “Moving Together presents new opportunities to help people save money, get around more easily and reduce their carbon footprint” says Roger Clarke, Transport Group Convenor from Hope Valley Climate Action. “As the cost of living increases and the need to reduce carbon emissions becomes ever more urgent, information hubs like Moving Together are a great resource for communities. After answering a few quick questions, the site will point you in the direction of the most suitable transport solutions available to you; for example, sharing your domestic EV charger with others in return for a small profit from the electricity sold.” “Moving Together is a ‘one-stop shop’ which brings together some simple and innovative ideas to help residents share the resources they have in terms of transport” adds Andy Parker of Buxton Town Team. “From a free app which helps people to find a lift-share buddy in their local area, to information on community car clubs such as Buxton’s Enterprise Car Club, the platform offers some accessible and no-cost ways to reduce the cost of travel and carbon emissions.” Julian Ashworth, Moving Together project lead at Hope Valley Climate Action, is keen to get feedback from people who have used the platform or the solutions on it. “It’s important we know if it meets people’s needs, and how we can improve it in future. Whatever your views, email us at travelgroup@hopevalleyclimateaction.org.uk . We are also capturing people’s views and attitudes to shared transport on our online platform, Commonplace, here: https://lnkd.in/eN3E5g_q Moving Together has been developed in partnership with Cenex technology consultancy, Derbyshire County Council, Buxton Town Team and Hope Valley Climate Action’s Travelling Light project. It is funded by Midlands Connect who research, develop and progress transport projects which will provide the biggest possible environmental, economic and social benefits for the Midlands and the rest of the UK. Buxton Town Team and Hope Valley Climate Action’s Travelling Light project have brought local knowledge and community engagement to the project.

🚗🌱 Carpooling: Driving Change for a Greener Tomorrow 🌍👫 Looking for a simple yet impactful way to reduce your carbon footprint and combat climate change? Consider carpooling! Carpooling not only helps reduce traffic congestion and air pollution but also fosters a sense of community and camaraderie among commuters. Here are some reasons why carpooling is a win-win for both you and the planet: 1️⃣ **Reduce Carbon Emissions**: By sharing rides with others, you can significantly reduce the number of vehicles on the road, leading to lower carbon emissions and improved air quality. Every mile shared is a mile less of greenhouse gases released into the atmosphere, helping to mitigate the effects of climate change. 2️⃣ **Save Money**: Carpooling allows you to split the cost of fuel, tolls, and parking fees with your fellow commuters, saving you money on transportation expenses. Additionally, carpooling can help reduce wear and tear on your vehicle, leading to lower maintenance costs in the long run. 3️⃣ **Conserve Resources**: By using fewer vehicles for transportation, carpooling helps conserve valuable resources such as fossil fuels and raw materials used in automobile manufacturing. This contributes to the preservation of natural habitats and ecosystems, promoting environmental sustainability. 4️⃣ **Reduce Traffic Congestion**: Carpooling helps alleviate traffic congestion on busy roads and highways, leading to smoother traffic flow and shorter commute times for everyone. This not only reduces stress for commuters but also improves overall road safety and efficiency. 5️⃣ **Build Community Connections**: Carpooling provides an opportunity to connect with fellow commuters and build meaningful relationships. Sharing rides allows for conversations, laughter, and shared experiences, fostering a sense of camaraderie and social connection among participants. Ready to join the carpooling movement? Whether you're commuting to work, running errands, or heading to a social event, consider coordinating rides with friends, coworkers, or neighbors to make a positive impact on the environment and your wallet.

The future is about sustainable urban environments, and e-bikes are quickly gaining traction in this movement. E-bikes have become an answer to a more environmentally sustainable future and a symbol of hope for city dwellers seeking quieter streets and better air quality. Let’s explore the revolutionary potential of e-bikes—how they can be used for more than the daily commute, to help shape sustainable transportation in the future.

🌱 Join the Movement Towards Sustainable Transportation 🌍 In our ongoing journey towards sustainability, the choices we make every day in how we travel play a significant role. It's time to reconsider our modes of transportation from the perspective of environmental friendliness. If you drive a car to work, consider the leap towards an electric car shortly. For those who opt for cabs, how about switching to a carpool service instead of going solo? It isn’t just about the destination, but also how we get there that counts. By choosing one step greener on the transportation ladder – metro over buses, carpool over solo, and so on – we individually contribute to the collective march towards a more sustainable planet. It’s a simple shift that can create a significant impact. Collective action begins with individual choices. As we move towards embracing greener technologies and habits, it is these small adjustments in our daily commutes that can steer us towards a cleaner, more sustainable future. Let's make our next ride a ride for the future. 🚗🌿 #sustainability #greentransportation #climateaction
