EV, OK? Please ?!?!

Season 1, episode 1
49 min / Published

Trucking has been the backbone of logistics in India, but as we move towards electrification it appears to have cracks. Shortage and retention of drivers continues to plague the industry. Can the transition to Zero Emission Trucks (ZETs) attempt to change this?

Join me in this conversation with Saudamini Zutshi from Purpose (www.purpose.org), aglobal social impact organization that harnesses the power of storytelling and insights-based campaigns to engage and mobilize communities around the world. Saudamini leads the project and partnerships to include truck drivers in the conversation of transition and aims to get them a proverbial “seat at the table”.
