Day: October 17, 2021

The issue of climate change is becoming more urgent, but thankfully, that means the movement for sustainability is becoming easier to join. Bill Ford, executive chair of Ford Motor Company (and the great-grandson of Ford founder Henry Ford), keeps that in mind in his approach to environmental progress in the automotive industry. At the Variety Sustainability in Hollywood event presented by Ford Motor Company, Ford shared how much times have changed in his career.

TPS and the Chartered Institute for Logistics and Transport (CILT) are hosting a joint webinar on 19 October as part of the programme of Transport Planning Day Events leading up to TP Day on 16 November.  The event is entitled ‘Sustainability versus Inclusion: Squaring the Circle’ and will be led by Jim Morey, TPS Board Member and Independent Mobility Expert.  The backdrop to the event is how policies and changing priorities in the drive towards more sustainable cities has left many disabled and older people (including those with low vision or mobility difficulties) experiencing more anxiety and fewer opportunities for independent mobility.
