Published 14th May 2011 - 0 comments - 2397 views -

British Council ended their Challenge Europe campaign with a showing of the short documentary Denmark 2025, an exhibiton of the Hungry Planet photos and a few speeches and debate. Below are videos of the three perhaps most interesting presentations - Martin Lidegaard of Concito (green think tank), Marianna Lubanski of Grundfos and Katja Rosenbaum of the European Environment Agency - as well as the Denmark 2025 documentary.

The two most important things that has happened the last couple of years:
1. We didn't get a deal at COP15 in Copenhagen and we will not get it in another ten years.
2. Prices of natural resources and raw materials are going up.
Conclusions:
1. Lower taxes on income, raise taxes on resources.
2. Inspire massive investments in green technologies.
3. Take a hard look at land use.
