Cloud Cafe - COP26 - Opportunities for a transport revolution

Whether we live in cities, towns or the countryside, transport is key to enabling us to go about our daily lives. However, over- reliance on the car has helped push CO2 emissions in this country to unsustainable levels.

The COP26 summit later this year is a real opportunity to put discussions about a shift to sustainable transport to the fore. As a forerunner to this critical event, we have invited speakers with a wealth of experience in this matter to discuss their work and answer audience questions, our speakers include:

  • Richard Lloyd and Louise Williams to discuss their “Every Village, Every Hour” campaign.
  • Carol Kambites, a long time Green Party member who has been campaigning for many years to re-instate the Stonehouse to Bristol train line.
  • Susie Medley, who with the support of Transition Stroud, has helped set up a local transport group with the aim of improving transport in the rural areas around Stroud District.

There will be opportunities to ask questions and join the conversation during the session.

Everyone is welcome, Cloud Cafe's are open to public, so tell your neighbour!

Hope to see you there.
