Face Adrenalin - https://www.faceadrenalin.com/- operates the world's highest bungy bridge at Bloukrans, South Africa.
We pioneered and established bungy jumping in South Africa when we opened for business in 1990. We’ve operated the highest commercial bungy bridge in the world - Bloukrans Bungy, in the Tsitsikamma section of the Garden Route - since 1997, and we’re thus deeply aware of the value and importance of our relationships with both the people and natural environment of this beautiful region. Having always supported the principles of the triple bottom line (financial, social, and environmental accountability), and given that we accept the definition of responsible tourism as ‘creating better places to live in, and better places to visit,’ we are thus also committed to supporting the principles of responsible tourism as defined in the Cape Town Declaration of 2002.
The document discusses global pollution, the major industries contributing to it, and how it can be reduced.

The last year brought tremendous innovation to urban mobility in Seattle. The launch of key players, like ReachNow, Scoop and Chariot among others, are making the idea of connected, electric, automated and shared urban transportation in Seattle a reality. With the influx of options combined with the expectation that autonomous cars will soon hit the streets of the Emerald City, hear from leaders in urban mobility about where this is all headed. With all these options, how should Seattleite’s think about these new services? Will increase mobility options simply create more congestion? What considerations are being made on the way to autonomous cars?
This document summarizes various initiatives across Canada to promote more sustainable transportation choices and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. It highlights programs in several British Columbia communities including Kelowna, Kamloops and Vancouver that are working to increase the use of alternatives to single-occupancy vehicles like transit, cycling and carpooling. The document also provides tips and incentives for individuals to reduce their emissions through choices like driving less, maintaining their vehicles properly, and joining the One Tonne Challenge to lower personal greenhouse gas output.
The document discusses cycling infrastructure and promotion in the UK. It provides examples of cities and national parks receiving £94 million in funding to improve cycling routes. Articles announce the largest single cash injection for cycling and plans to make roads safer. Quotes from officials urge building safer cycling routes to benefit cyclists as well as reducing congestion and encouraging alternative transport use. The document suggests this approach could work for sustainable transport overall if local projects impressed people and localism felt real through engagement with local authorities.
This project aimed to promote the use of bicycles over motor vehicles on the LPU campus. The team conducted interviews and surveys to analyze awareness levels and gather feedback. They found that while many students support biking for short distances or health benefits, more awareness is still needed. Data showed the Netherlands has the highest rate of biking at 99.1%, while India could improve road safety for cyclists. The presence of HEXI bike stands on campus was seen as a positive step, but maintenance of dedicated cycling tracks country-wide is still lacking. The results suggest continuing efforts to educate the LPU community on the environmental and health advantages of biking.
The document outlines the course outline for a three-session course on designing for cycling. Session 1 will cover applying principles to cycle route design, and tools for assessment.

SANDAG manages transportation, housing, and other regional plans in San Diego County. Their RideLink program promotes alternative commuting like carpooling, vanpooling, transit, biking and teleworking to reduce traffic and pollution. RideLink has enrolled over 75,000 employees who have taken over 2 million cars off roads during rush hours, saving over 100 million vehicle miles and 5 million gallons of gas. The program offers services like matching commuters, a guaranteed ride home, and vanpool and bike subsidies.
This document discusses the benefits of lift sharing (carpooling) for commuters and cities. It notes that while 15 million people commute in England, only 800,000 currently get a lift to work, leaving 36 million empty seats each morning. Lift sharing could save the average commuter £1,000 per year and reduce CO2 emissions by 10%. The document advocates for cities to promote lift sharing to reduce congestion and emissions, save commuters money, and utilize the millions of empty vehicle seats during each commute. Barriers to greater lift sharing participation and recommendations to overcome these barriers are provided.
The Sussex Community NHS Trust has taken several steps to reduce emissions from its fleet vehicles and employee driving. This includes replacing diesel cars with more fuel-efficient petrol models, setting stricter emissions limits for leased vehicles, and launching initiatives to encourage employees to use lower-emission options like pool vehicles, public transport, cycling and teleconferencing. As a result, the Trust has reduced business mileage by nearly 1 million miles and cut fleet carbon emissions by 19% since 2011. It has also worked with partners and received outside funding to support additional electric vehicles and charging infrastructure. The Trust's "Care Without Carbon" strategy aims to further reduce its carbon footprint with a goal of becoming a carbon neutral healthcare provider.

A Guide to AI for Smarter Nonprofits - Dr. Cori Faklaris, UNC CharlotteCori Faklaris
Working with data is a challenge for many organizations. Nonprofits in particular may need to collect and analyze sensitive, incomplete, and/or biased historical data about people. In this talk, Dr. Cori Faklaris of UNC Charlotte provides an overview of current AI capabilities and weaknesses to consider when integrating current AI technologies into the data workflow. The talk is organized around three takeaways: (1) For better or sometimes worse, AI provides you with “infinite interns.” (2) Give people permission & guardrails to learn what works with these “interns” and what doesn’t. (3) Create a roadmap for adding in more AI to assist nonprofit work, along with strategies for bias mitigation.
