Towards a Carbon-neutral Manchester through Collaboration between Healthcare and Transport. Andy Burnham, Mayor of Greater Manchester (UK), has challenged his city to become carbon-neutral by 2038. This is a bold target, considering it is 12 years ahead of the UK government’s own target of 2050. And bold targets require bold changes. One change, that the city is actively pursuing, is greater collaboration between different city departments and public authorities to improve efficiencies and seek common solutions towards decarbonisation. Through the SUMP-PLUS project, this collaboration is starting with transport and healthcare.
