"India Steers Full Speed towards Low Carbon Transport"
Posted by India Streets on 12 November 2010 

"We do not normally carry media releases on projects, programs, reports or
books, but today we make an exception and are gladly posting the following
important announcement. We share this both here and on the Sustran Global
South forum for comment and discussion. It is our firm intention to keep an
eye on this and our firm hope that the money spent and technical resources
brought to the job will result above all in multiplying the number of many
and diverse on-street examples of how sustainable mobility works in the
interest of the entire population - and not just the privileged (automotive
and relatively affluent) few. As William Blake put it roughly two centuries
ago: "He who would do good to another must do it in minute particulars."
India Streets pledges keep as eye on the minute particulars."

The full UNEP release is available both on World Streets at

-low-carbon-transport/. Or direct on the UNEP site:

And this is to invite your comments both here and on World  Streets. And if
you agree we would like to be able to take selected comments and add them
directly to the main article, so that readers will have a fuller picture of
the reactions to this announcement, and some thoughts and hopes for the
future.

We look forward with real interest to your comments. And of course we wish
the greatest of success to this promising initiative.
