Liveable green city

Copenhagen is to be carbon neutral by 2025, cycling is the favoured means of transport, and the city boasts large recreational areas.

Copenhagen is rated continuously among the most livable cities in the world. Copenhagen is a growing metropolitan with an ambitious approach to urban planning and green living. New sustainable city districts are on their way, and with the architecture to match. Planning a city for life – and cycling – now goes by the term ‘Copenhagenization’

Climate change poses some specific challenges for Copenhagen with increased rainfall, warmer weather and rising sea levels. Copenhagen is in the process of adapting the city to a changed climate. At the same time Copenhagen as a city and capital takes responsibility for climate change. We want to combine growth, development and quality of life with reduced CO2 emissions, so that we can become the world's first CO2 neutral capital in 2025.

Bicycles make out a huge portion of Copenhagen's visual appearance. When visiting Copenhagen you will not only see bicycles parked at every station and in every street. The most impressing fact is the vast amount of Copenhageners on bikes that are an integrated part of traffic and the urban infrastructure.
