In Sweden and Europe, many actors are mobilizing for climate-neutral cities in 2030. During Transition Lab Forum 14 in Östersund, we will delve into how we can integrate places, visits and events in the development of climate-neutral cities and communities. Places that are inclusive, attractive and competitive and that contribute to a good life for everyone within the limits of the planet.
The climate contract is for all companies in Kalmar that want to work together with the municipality for a sustainable and climate-smart society. Signing the contract means that your company supports the intention of the agreement and makes commitments that suit its own business, are feasible and reduce carbon dioxide emissions.
Kalmar wants to see how the Old Industrial Area can be developed into a part of the inner city in a sustainable way and be robust in the face of future climate change. All within the framework of an EU-funded New European Bauhaus project.
Building communities and growing cities requires large amounts of resources. How we use resources is therefore of great importance for the possibility to keep climate impact down. At Tranistion Lab Forum 11, we will focus on how we can use our resources in an efficient and sustainable way, for example, how recycling can be given more space in new construction and renovation. We will touch on topics such as innovation procurement and land allocation competitions, how it can be used to make the built environment more climate smart.
This breakfast is hosted by our program manager Olga Kordas, who develops the thoughts about Climate City Contract 2030's innermost essence, and by Henrik Johansson from Växjö municipality and Charlotte Brynielsson from Kalmar municipality. Both municipalities are part of the Climate Neutral Cities 2030 initiative and will talk about the value of Climate City Contract, the iterative process, what they have achieved and their plans for the future. Welcome to the Viable Cities Climate Breakfast 2022!
