The Climate Mission is where we can accelerate!

Eindhoven and Helmond are working on an ambitious mission: becoming more sustainable faster. A more sustainable environment not only contributes to clean air and healthy nature but also to the well-being of everyone who lives, works and recreates. Now and in the future.

With the Climate Mission, Eindhoven and Helmond, together with companies, knowledge institutions, organisations and residents, are heading towards fossil-free, circular, and climate-resilient cities. This course consists of jointly defined city themes, linked to mission pathways. With the Climate Mission, we are taking steps together.

Update!

In September, we submitted our plan to Brussels for the EU mission ‘100 Climate-Neutral and Smart Cities’. The goal is to get a Mission Label and European support. Because the Climate Mission pulls out all the stops to speed up! We expect to know more before the Summer.

Description

The implementation of the Mobility Vision requires collaboration with other disciplines and partners in the fields of redesign, public space, behavior influence, regulation and enforcement, monitoring and adjustment, and financing. This necessitates a working method and organization that ensures cohesion and progress over the years to prevent the emergence of "disconnected" projects that do not complement each other. Therefore, the implementation of the vision will utilize a Multi-Year Implementation Program for Mobility Transition (MUM), which will be managed by a fixed internal coordination team. The precise description of the responsibilities of this team will be further developed immediately after the vision is finalized.

Within this project, we want to connect organic food to biodiversity and our own living environment: from food chain to food web, from mouth to soil. We aim to make the organic food chain visible through video and blockchain. We want to increase the organic supply in the hospitality sector and promote knowledge exchange and collaboration. We want to set a good example with organic production and consumption - good examples inspire imitation.
