This campaign gives people the opportunity to explore the rol of streets in the city and experiment practical solutions to face urban challenges, like air pollution.
It is recommended to local authorities to discuss in this european week several aspects of mobility and quality of air, find innovative solutions to reduce the use of private car and transport´s emmissiones, and use new technologies and planning measures.
Climatic change and associated environmental impacts, like floods, droughts or heat wave, are one of more imminent menace for the welfare of european people. According to París Agreement, which target is to keep global warming within a threshold of 1.5 degrees, it is crucial to achieve carbon neutrality in 2050. Carbon neutrality can be achieved thanks to a combination of methods incluiding the reduction of carbon emmissions on public and private transport, foot displacements or riding a bike.
