S3E05: Ride the Change: shifting gears towards climate action

For Earth Day 2024, we’re proud to be sponsoring the Ride the Change bike ride, an epic journey that spans the UK, Holland and Belgium. By raising climate pledges instead of cash, the ride – organised by Do Nation – aims to encourage simple, sustainable actions.

70 cyclists representing AECOM and other organisations travelled from the UK and Europe to take part in the event, including our podcast host James Banks. To mark this milestone, we bring you a special live episode from the Atomium in Brussels, where the ride culminates.

Join James as he speaks to four other participants and attendees for a post-ride discussion on the future of energy and transport. As well as sharing stories from the road, they’ll dive into the ways we can collectively work together to achieve a just transition.

Speakers include:

• Miet Luyckx, Programme Management Director for Benelux, AECOM

• Ajai Ahluwalia, Head of Supply Chain, Renewables UK

• Lars Verkerk, Strategic Alliance Manager, Johnson Controls

• Andrew Griffiths, Director of Policy & Partnerships at PlanetMark
