Tck Tck Tck – Climate action call

Johannesburg Summit 2002
 

The World Summit in Johannesburg 2002 failed to nail down decent climate treaty.

We can’t afford this kind of failure again at UN Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen in December 2009.

The global climate movement TckTckTck.org, is the hub for mobilizing civil society support for an historic agreement on climate change.

So let’s roll, do it or simply tck tck tck on!

Bike, bus or walk, it’s Mobility week

Nordic walking
 

The most widespread event on sustainable mobility, the European Mobility Week (from 16 to 22 September 2009) concentrates this year on climate issues.

The 2009 campaign theme “Improving City Climates”  underlines the importance of local level efforts to tackle climate change and improve quality of life through the promotion of alternative transport modes to the car such as cycling, walking, and public transport as well as clever car use schemes such car-sharing and car-pooling.

And of course you must not forget Nordic walking!
