Legislating for Future Generations- Sustainable transport
Transport systems have radically transformed our relationship to the world around us. Past generations have made transport more accessible, faster, and cheaper, but not sustainable. In 2016 transportation accounted for 24% of global C02 emissions - in the context of the climate crisis, this poses a serious problem. Join this panel session to hear more about the future of sustainable transport and how we can design and legislate for future generations.

Decarbonizing global supply chains
​
How young leaders are building the sustainable supply chain of the future. In this session, young project leaders from various sectors will share their experiences in building the carbon-neutral supply chain of the future. The session will be kicked off by a senior representative of the BMW Group sharing their thoughts on supply chain sustainability. The project leaders will then present on their respective work on decarbonizing global supply chains in their respective organisations. These pitches will be followed by a discussion amongst the project leaders sharing their experiences with driving the sustainable redesign of supply chains. The discussion will address challenges in decarbonizing global supply chains on a technical, economical, and cultural level. Participants will have the opportunity to comment on these challenges and will share their strategies to overcome these barriers successfully.

Where to next? The road to clean transport for all
It is clear that modern transportation is not sustainable, and has significantly contributed to climate change – new systems must be embraced urgently. Zero carbon emitting vehicles will need to dominate the next generation of transport. The question is, how can this be achieved, and how can we ensure that there is a high level of accessibility and affordability for all?
