#135 COP26: Decarbonising Transport


Listen Later

Decarbonisation of transportation and shipping will require us to leverage improvements to green technologies and adapt to new ways of thinking and organising. It will require us to make different choices, on an individual and collective level.

This is the final episode in our series of specials in the run up to COP26. We will learn about a new concept known as a Transport-Energy Nexus, we will learn about how government is advised on the best climate policies and we will learn about a new hydrogen hub planned for the North East England.

Guests

Eoin Devane, Senior Analyst, Climate Change Committee

Craig Lucas, Director of Energy Transformation, Mott MacDonald

Kim Yates, UK & Europe Sustainability Lead, Mott MacDonald
