CARE-North Final Conference

At a time when the North Sea Region is working to deal with the effects of climate change, the traditional understanding of transport is leading to a continued increase in CO2 emissions, undermining other climate protection efforts.

CARE-North list of priority areas in the field of urban mobility for inclusion in ICLEI's Rio+20 position paper.

The ‘carbon responsible transport strategies for the North Sea Area’ (CARE-North) project has developed innovative carbon reduction strategies for urban and regional transport to maintain and improve accessibility in a more carbon-responsible way, particularly in the context of climate change and declining oil supplies.

All the cities and regions involved in CARE-North have developed and implemented lighthouse projects, which has allowed for an analysis of the drivers and barriers for their potential replication in cities across Europe. The final CARE-North conference will present the outcomes of the project and discuss comprehensive and practical approaches.

International experts will link the topic to the EU perspective as well as to the Rio+20 process. The conference is free of charge and will take place in ICLEI member city Bremen (Germany) – allowing also site visits to some showcases for low-carbon and as well post-fossil transport strategies...
