Climate Summit for Local Government

Sept 6-8, 2023 | Melbourne

On ya bike or not? Global movers, shakers, and city shapers reimagining car culture

(Text from ABC site) 53 minute listen
What do the streets feel like where you live? Unsafe for kids to ride to school, big busy highways, limited public transport?

From electric vehicles to bike-friendly buses — be inspired by these globally renowned movers and shakers. They’re using the regional town of Bendigo and international case studies to re-imagine how we live and move.

Transport accounts for a staggering quarter of global greenhouse emissions. Could one Australian town lead the way and hit zero transport emissions by 2030? What would that look like?

Join Natasha Mitchell at Bendigo Climate Summit on Dja Dja Wurrung and Taungurung country in Central Victoria.

This event was organised by Ian McBurney and the Greater Bendigo Climate Collaboration team for the City of Greater Bendigo. Thank you to the technical team at Ulumbarra theatre for recording.
