- Reducing CO2 emissions
- Description
-
Bremerhaven has voluntarily committed itself to reducing its CO2 emissions by 95% by 2038 and a master plan for active climate protection has already been drawn up in which well over a hundred measures have been listed and updated. In Bremerhaven, municipal and private housing companies have renovated various residential buildings from the 1950s and 1960s with innovative energy-saving concepts. An online solar register is freely available to citizens to inform them about the solar potential of their roofs. Almost all Bremerhaven schools participate in the ‘3⁄4 plus’ energy-saving project, educating children about climate protection. The pupils discuss problems and connections between energy, resource consumption and climate change in class while their caretakers check the consumption of electricity, heat and water and implement technical energy efficiency measures at home. The project facilitates learning and testing of energy-saving and
22 climate-friendly behaviour in everyday school life. Based on the energy and water consumption, the participating schools receive an annual bonus of up to 2,500 euros.
