But progress exists. EV sales up 25% in 2024. Cities reclaiming space from cars. The UN Decade of #SustainableTransport just launched. The question is scale — and political will. #ElectricVehicles #ActiveMobility #CarFree #Decarbonisation
E-mobility is in 78% of NDCs. Meanwhile: bus rapid transit dropped from 19 NDCs to 8. Active mobility is in just 28%. Mode share targets fell from 28% to 12%.
Freight (43% of transport CO₂) appears in only 41% of climate plans.

78% of NDCs feature e-mobility — but 'Avoid' and 'Shift' measures are falling behind. Freight, aviation and informal transport remain blind spots. Technology alone won't decarbonise the sector.
