What types of transportation does C40 promote to reduce emissions?

C40 promotes a holistic approach to sustainable urban mobility, emphasizing the need to reduce emissions through various means of transportation. By focusing on cycling, walking, and electric public transport, C40 encourages cities to create more livable environments while minimizing their carbon footprint.

Cycling and walking are essential as they provide non-polluting modes of transport that have additional benefits, such as reducing traffic congestion and improving public health. Furthermore, investing in electric public transport ensures that mass transit systems can operate with lower emissions, making them a cleaner alternative to traditional fossil fuel-based options.

This comprehensive strategy targets multiple facets of urban mobility, aiming to encourage a shift away from single-occupancy vehicles and reduce the overall reliance on fossil fuels, thereby contributing to climate goals and sustainability in cities.
