Stockholm - European green capital 2010


We often hear a lot of bad things about how our society looks today from a sustainable poit of view. A few days ago i read about a conferens that will take place at Kistamässan, october 19th. I went to their home page and found out that Stockholm became the first ”european green capital” in 2010. At  European green capitals home page their are some funny information about Stockholm from a sustainable point of view that I think is worth reading. For example all inner city buses and trains runs on renewable fuels and the green house gas emissions have been reduced by 25% since 1990. Sometimes I get the impression that we are going in wrong direction but after reading the review of Stockholm it seems that we (the city) actually making improvemenst all the time.
