Cambridge is one of the fastest growing cities in the UK and is host to some of the most productive and innovative contributors to the UK economy. However, economic growth and success brings with it challenges, including rising congestion, housing shortages and pollution. Cambridge needs to take radical action to grow sustainably and in line with the UN Sustainable Development Goals, which is the mission for the Cambridge 2030 initiative @Cambridge2030.
In this episode we talk to Simon Humphrey, senior manager of sustainability at Arm and Jane Paterson-Todd, CEO of Cambridge Ahead, about the positive and negative impacts of the Cambridge phenomenon, and how more sustainable growth might be achieved, and hear from members of the community about this impact from their perspective.
