1. New Mobility News Alerts
   The internet gives unprecedented opportunities to stay abreast of latest sustainable mobility developments world wide. This new tool set provides one click overviews of latest developments in five languages (and counting). Read it with your morning coffee. You may be surprised at how much is going on in this patently unsustainable world.

2. World Inventory of Sustainability Resources
   One-click access to our continuously updated selection of hundreds of outstanding sustainability research and action programs and websites in some forty countries world wide. Indexed and fully searchable.
   • Are you listed there? Did we miss one of your best references? Do let us know so it will be there for all to use.

3. Discussion Fora/Lists
   The workings of each of the specialized sites/programs are clearly spelled out on their respective home pages, and each of which are supported by their own Discussion Groups. All of our fora are monitored low volume messaging lists, with never more than one message max/day (other than the several "cafés" which are intended to facilitate freer, at times higher volume exchanges and information and idea swapping). Moreover our moderator tries hard to make sure that the messages that do come out are germane to the interest of our very busy members.

4. The Commons Open Society Sustainability Initiative
   This is the broader context of and gateway to all our programs, including the New Mobility Agenda. The Commons has been developed over the last decades as a wide open, independent first-stop shop on the web for concerned citizens, researchers, students, policy makers, entrepreneurs, investors or social activists interested in quickly getting a feel for world sustainability issues, views and developments from an unbiased critical perspective. We may not know all the answers, but we know some pretty good questions. The Commons is an Open Society program that invites diversity, complex thinking and initiative.

To your left you will find a collection of tools and utilities that we are integrating into this portal in order to make it a more efficient and more creatively interactive place to consult and work. All of these tools work 'as advertised', if you take the time and care to understand how they are properly put to use.

Some of the files your find here may require specific software to be viewed. Viewers allow you to read documents and images created with a particular word-processor or graphics package even if you don't have the software concerned. Here are a few of the ones you are most likely to need here:

  RealPlayer - for audio and videos.

  Shockwave - for some videos.

  Adobe Acrobat Reader - for PDF files.

To view PowerPoint documents you may need the MS PowerPoint Viewer (also free).

Your Suggestions/Contributions:
Be a good neighbor. If you have an idea, some critical remarks, or, best of all, new and better tools to share with us all, this is the place to do it.
