MobilitAria Report 2025: Local Public Transport, Automotive, Gender Equality, Air Quality and Health
Cities at a standstill, sustainable mobility still far away. The Report was presented today in live streaming on YouTube.
Also this year the Report "Mobility 2025", realized by Kyoto Club and the Institute for Air Pollution of the National Research Council ((CNR-IIA), analyzes Mobility and air quality data for 2024 in 14 Italian metropolitan cities.
The Report addresses these issues in detail thanks to: an analysis and proposals by Kyoto Club and CNR-IIA for the sustainable mobility and the way to zero-emission cities, a focus on national measures to finance interventions in favor of sustainable mobility, a look at the implementation of the European Directive 2024/2881 on air quality.
New at MobilitAria 2025 is the analysis of the gender gap in the mobility sector: an interesting focus on mobility and gender, compared with the European experiences of Vienna and Barcelona which show the way, integrating the gender perspective into urban policies for years now.
The study photographs an urban Italy at a standstill on the sustainable mobility front and, in some cases, in regression. After years of moderate progress, the air quality continues to have several critical issues, especially in view of the entry into force of the new directive and CO2 emissions related to the transport sector are among the few that continue to increase according to Ispra data. The sector is the only one in 2024 to contribute more to the climate crisis than it did in 1990, despite the proclamations on the ecological transition.
