With ambitions to be a carbon neutral city region by 2038, Greater Manchester wants to be known for its flourishing environment as well as its economic success.
James Banks is joined by Greater Manchester’s first Cycling and Walking Commissioner and Olympic gold medallist Chris Boardman, Director of Environment for Manchester based property group Bruntwood, Bev Taylor and AECOM’s Rachel O’Donnell, Business Unit Director of Environmental Liability Solutions in the UK and Ireland.
They discuss how we can deliver a more liveable city, that gives back to its people and nature? And what can we take from Coronavirus Pandemic lockdown to drive the agenda on greening our infrastructure and changing our behaviours to support a lower carbon economy and way of working?
