The environment is under pressure from thousands of tons of Co2 emitted by vehicles every day. Bubble Post aims to make logistic transportation 100% ecological. The company was founded in 2013 in Gent and is now delivering in 40 cities throughout Belgium and Netherlands. Currently they have 200 employees. The goods are delivered to warehouses at the outskirts of the city, where they are carefully sorted and bundled. Then the goods are delivered per bike, electric cars and electric vans.
Partago is an innovative car-sharing network based in Gent, Belgium. Partago is a co-operation so all their members own a part of the company. At the moment they have three Renault Zoë’s driving around in the city. With an app members can reserve a car and pick it up at their desired time. Soon they want to have an electric car in every neighbourhood of the city.
I interviewed Joachim Jacob, the owner of the Partago. Joachim has a clear view on the current state of e-mobility in Belgium which he explains in the interview.
I payed a visit to Finch Buildings, a modular house from wood which can be uses as student room, hotel and even off-grid housing. My last night in The Netherlands was at Linda’s place in Valkenburg, close to the border with Belgium.
Saturday I finally set foot across the border, in Belgium. Sabrina was my host in Brussels. We ate Belgian fries, fries are good!
