On Monday, February 8, Island Press hosted a webinar for its San Francisco Bay Area partners featuring international sustainability expert Peter Newman and TransForm’s Chris Lepe. Newman discussed his latest Island Press book, The End of Automobile Dependence, the final volume in a trilogy with co-author Jeffrey Kenworthy on automobile dependence (Cities and Automobile Dependence in 1989 and Sustainability and Cities: Overcoming Automobile Dependence in 1999), and how its key findings can be applied to real-world transit and transportation issues. Many thanks to the following partners and co-sponsors for making the webinar possible: TransForm; SPUR; APA Northern California Sustainability Committee; and Transportation and Land Development Committee, Transportation Research Board, The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine.
