Johan entered HOPENHAGEN

Today I was in HOPENHAGEN for the first time, now with my family. We entered BRIGHT GREEN after having travelled 2,5 h with public transportations, a journey that would take approximately 1 h with car. This is something that is a serious obstacle that must be solved in the future if we should succeed to change ordinary people transport behaviour.

The BRIGHT GREEN exhibition was an arena mainly for businessmen and -women in dark suites. My gut feeling is that clean-tech and smart energy solution has become serious big business. The people in this arena were there foremost to earn for a good living. Is this a prerequisite to achieve the environmental goals that the society should agree on the following week to come –that the commercial sector goes hand in hand with the life necessary environmental solutions? Yes maybe, but I think we never should forget what the core is, and that is to create a safe and fruitful future, and that should be done without harming other interests.

Tomorrow I will join the COP15 and I am looking forward to this maybe most important meeting in my generation.
