DecarbCities

It’s a wrap! At #DecarbCities we gave cities the leading role in the #energytransition. How about moving from #smartcities to #geniuscities? Cities that are more lively, safe, healthy. Cities where we feel we belong.

@claireroumet closing remarks @ #DecarbCities “We can stop doing what’s easy first, we don’t have time. Moving from the low-hanging fruits to the high-hanging fruits, should start now.’’

There’s a role for the Commission to play in building trust around the #energytransition at all levels > citizens, communities, #cities. Meet the #changemakers @ #DecarbCities

Meet the #changemakers @ #DecarbCities in Vienna!

The time for action is now. Decarbonising heat is more than a hot topic > what does this mean concretely for cities? Today @ the #DecarbCities conference, we brought together the change-makers to provide us with solutions. @claireroumet
