We warmly invite you to our online event A green recovery: the future of transport in Exeter, with speakers including Ben Bradshaw MP.

Transport accounts for around one third of the UK’s greenhouse gas emissions, with the vast majority coming from road transport - cars, vans and HGVs. At the same time, Devon and Exeter face significant transport challenges, both in terms of sustainability and accessibility.

The UK government has committed itself to the largest ever UK road building project – costing £27bn of taxpayers’ money over the next five years. So in the run up to key decisions on the transport budget, Greenpeace UK is organising local online events to reach people and politicians and push sustainable transport to the top of the agenda.

Please join us online for our event in Exeter to share your thoughts and discuss transport issues. Together we want to demonstrate a huge appetite for better local, sustainable transport and share a discussion with our MP and politicians who we hope will be joining us on the day.

We know that Exeter has a wealth of experts in sustainable transport, and we have invited leading local politicians and campaigners to speak alongside Greenpeace UK. Caspar Hughes will be joining us to speak on the topic, bringing a wealth of experience from his time campaining and working wth organisations such as Rollapaluza, Stop Killing Cyclists and Extinction Rebellion. We will also be joined by Exeter Cycling Campaign and our local Exeter MP, Ben Bradshaw.

The event will be held online using a Zoom video conference. Details below:
