Zagreb’s knowledge base for best practice in sustainability
I have been to university campuses around the world and seen some great sustainability initiatives.
In fact, some were so good I wondered why everyone was not doing the same thing. The answer, I suspect, is because ideas often struggle to find a path out of their locality and for all the talk of the world being smaller, there are still barriers of language and culture that stand in the way of innovation and ingenuity crossing borders.
Mayor Khan’s strategy puts health at the heart of transport. Can he get Londoners walking and cycling?
Sadiq Khan’s draft transport strategy is aiming for 80% of everyday journeys to be made by foot, cycle or public transport and for all Londoners to get 20 minutes of walking or cycling a day. But just how realistic are these targets?
Earlier in the year, Transport for London set about finding a way of quantifying how much travel in London could be made by foot or bike. They took data on all of the journeys Londoners made each day, stripped out those already walked or cycled and those that were too long, or involved carrying heavy tools and equipment, and a few other criteria.
