Episode 4 - Getting There Sustainably

In episode 4 'Getting There Sustainably' we focus on transport. Which is one of the largest contributors to global greenhouse gasses. Aoibhin speaks to people in Waterford who are championing alternative forms of transport, that are kinder to the environment. Waterford man Tom Cullen from the Society of Irish Motor Industry talks about alternatives to petrol and diesel. How Ireland has committed to going down the route of promoting electric cars, but is electric the way to go? We also hear about bike schemes such as the TFI scheme in Waterford. There's a proposal to have an electric bike rental scheme in the city. And Aoibhin hears about the council's plans to make not only our daily commute but also our recreational outings, more eco-friendly by promoting alternatives to the car.
