Optimize car fleet size, composition and movements
In order to reduce mileage and fuel consumption we can:
📍Optimise vehicles usage in the missions where context and security allows it (ex: Only take one car to pick up several international-mobile staff at the airport).
📍Train drivers on eco-driving.
📍Purchase the lowest emission vehicules adapted to the need (driving in town is different than in the field so the car model can change according to its use).

It can be worth considering using electric cargo bikes when logistics (e.g. locations with different projects in a 10-20km radius, non-refrigerated items), safety (e.g. no conflict zone, proper infrastructure) and environment conditions (I wouldn't ride them in mid summer Madrid, for instance) allow. It can help reducing costs (cheaper procurement, less fuel, maintenance, etc.), carbon footprint (no use of fuel) and improve delivery times and cost for small to medium size parcels overall.
