Velo-city, the European Cyclists’ Federation convention, Brussels, May 2009

By Chris Keene
In May I attended the convention of the European Cyclists’ Federation  (ECF)www.ecf.com in Brussels, a truly inspiring event that left me with the conviction that cycling really does provide most of the answers to the problems of mobility in a carbon constrained world.

Why we need a zero carbon world

Why we need a zero carbon world

We need a zero carbon world to drastically improve our chances of avoiding a runaway greenhouse effect that is irreversible.

The Zero Carbon Caravan (ZCC) will generate a mass movement of individuals and organisations to carry the message of action on climate change to the UNFCCC talks in Copenhagen (2009).

We are making our way to Copenhagen without using fossil fuel transportation. Along the route we'll connect with local groups to establish an itinerary of ‘zero carbon conferences’ to build momentum for zero carbon awareness.

The ZCC will act as a coordinating hub for other ‘caravanning’ groups, encouraging worldwide participation to demand of the UNFCCC our mission: ‘A zero carbon world, as fast as we can’.
