Climate Change, as seen by the European Parliament

Some might call Hammarby Sjöstad in Stockholm a paradise of sustainable development. On a scale of one to ten for eco-friendly, this one's practically eleven. It's self-sufficient in energy. That and other features make it a model for European Union researchers, planners and politicians to study, within the context of climate change goals. Check out the integrated solar cells in the architecture, for example.

00.54 Varis BOKALDERS, Architect and Professor, Royal Institute of Technology, in English

( knock back for massons - Concrete = 7% global CO2 emissions )

1 ton of concrete = 1 ton of carbon ... Tax the builders.. 7% of ALL CO2 comes from building with concrete.
