Dear Ipek,
is there any way to participate virtually? It seems to me that a conference about
sustainable transportation should offer options to participate without travelling, which
probably means flying to the conference venue.
Please don't mention carbon offsets, I am looking for real solutions. See for example

Thanks,
Nicolas
