Companies have made significant strides over the past several years in reducing greenhouse gas emissions from their vehicle fleets. Most of the reductions we have seen have come from right-sizing efforts, such as moving from a 6 cylinder engine to a 4 cylinder one. Other efforts, such as adopting fuel-smart driving behaviors, are starting to catch on too. Still, there are a lot of emissions left to cut.
Environmental Defense Fund is hosting a call series to explore opportunities to cut greenhouse gas emissions from fleets. Please join us for the next call in our series when we will look out over the coming years and ask: What opportunities remain for fleets to reduce ghg emissions? What are fleets doing today and what strategies are up-and-coming? What barriers to do we need to tear down to reduce ghg emissions? Leading this discussion will be Jim Motavalli, a regular contributor to the New York Times Wheels blog, BNet, and the Mother Nature Network among many others sites.
The call is on May 3rd at 12pm Eastern time. To join, call:
Phone number: +1 (213) 289-0500
Code: 267-6815
The upcoming calls in this series will be:
- A look into the opportunities and challenges specific to vocational trucks;
- A deep dive into electrifying commercial fleets; and
- A deep dive into low-carbon fuels and commercial fleets
You can keep up with the rest of the call schedule as well as other conferences and events on the Innovation Exchange Calendar.
