The challenge encourages transit agencies to adopt strategies to reduce GHG emissions, such as creating climate action or sustainability plans, converting fleets to electric buses, or making facilities more energy efficient.<\/p>\n<p>Increased frequency and intensity of storms and natural disasters impact transit systems and riders. Transit facilities, equipment, and networks must be planned, designed, and built to be resilient and able to withstand extreme weather events.<\/p>\n<p>FTA will continue to share resources and provide opportunities to engage with transit agencies on how the industry can achieve the Administration\u2019s GHG emission reduction goals, as well as their own agency targets.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Links:<\/strong><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/learning.aptagateway.com\/products\/next-practices-for-addressing-climate-resiliency-in-public-transportation\">Register for the webinar<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.transit.dot.gov\/climate-challenge\">FTA\u2019s Climate Challenge<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.whitehouse.gov\/briefing-room\/statements-releases\/2021\/04\/22\/fact-sheet-president-biden-sets-2030-greenhouse-gas-pollution-reduction-target-aimed-at-creating-good-paying-union-jobs-and-securing-u-s-leadership-on-clean-energy-technologies\/\">President Biden\u2019s GHG Goal<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Register for the webinar here. <\/p>","protected":false},"author":631,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[136],"tags":[],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v22.3 -
