Where is the road to sustainable transport solutions?
This article is more than 1 year old.
Five years ago, the American tech magazine Wired had a feature about future means of transportation.
What may surprise many, the bicycle came out as the number one choice! Are they still right, or should we believe the car industry, which believes that the electric cars will reduce carbon footprint?
What about public transport solutions, car sharing and other ways to rethink passenger transport and infrastructure?
Is air transport completely out of the equation, and is Hyperloop just a pure sci-fi utopia? And what sustainable solutions for transportation of heavy goods do we see on the horizon?
For this talk and debate at DTU in Lyngby, we discuss the underlying structural causes, the technological possibilities and limitations as well as the dilemmas.
Panel debate
The panel provides an overview of technologies and solutions within infrastructure, transport, and urban planning, and we discuss differences, advantages, disadvantages and perspectives.
We debate the political courage, the economic prioritization, and the necessity for us all to accept any limitations and radical changes when we and our goods must go from A to B, including the crucial first/last mile.
As an audience, you will have plenty of opportunity to ask questions and get involved in the discussion.
The talk and panel discussion will be held in English.
