T&E is an independent pan-European association with scientific and educational aims, with no party political affiliation and devoid of any profit making motive.

Our mission is:

• to promote a policy of transport and accessibility, based on the principles of sustainable development, which minimises negative impacts on the environment and health, use of energy and land and all economic and social costs, maximises safety, and guarantees sufficient access for all;

Established in 1990, T&E has grown to become the principal environmental organisation campaigning on sustainable transport at the EU level in Brussels.

Our primary focus is on European transport and environmental policy but our work in Brussels is supported by around 50 member organisations working to promote an environmentally sound approach to transport across Europe.

Our main work areas at the moment are cars and CO2, low carbon fuels, transport noise, road charging for lorries, aviation and shipping.

T&E is an NGO in Special Consultative Status with the Economic and Social Council of the United Nations.

We coordinate the International Coalition for Sustainable Aviation (ICSA) which has observer status at the International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO).

We are also a member of the Green 10 group of environmental NGOs active on EU policy.
