Health Positive Adaptations Key Considerations Breathe Better
Sound Solutions
If your mobility product uses tyres, consider partnering with suppliers that proprieties low micro-plastic solutions
Consider the sound implications related your mobility solutions form. How might you be able to adapt its shape to reduce wind noise and turbulence.
Can you adapt your mobility solution to extract air pollution from the environment? If not could you invest in solutions or projects which do? Think sea grass or peat bog conservation.
If you cannot reduce the noise produced by your mobility solution, how might you invest in other areas that can help mitigate noise pollution? Think infrastructure materials, geo fencing technology to reduce speed in residential areas.
Ensure your business strategy prioritises the reduction of air pollution from material sourcing to final delivery
Consider investing in material technologies with better sound isolation properties. Can you invest in newer sustainable materials which are also better sound insulators?
How might you design the delivery of air pollution information to help older adults make informed decisions to reduce its impact on their health?
Remember it is not just large transport solutions which can contribute to noise pollution. Large numbers of e-scooters and other last mile solutions can contribute to the noise of a town or city.
Can you use your mobility solution to monitor local air quality levels, helping local authorities and government to address poor air quality?
