该城市和地方行动分会了，由气候组织的北美头主持。
最佳减排实践 － 城市占60％以上的碳排放，若不解决城市问题，无法解决气候变化的挑战。
12 city project by Accenture to promote Intelligent Cities.
you need a holistic plan, then integrate emissions reduction into other priorities and solutions,; you need an open platform; you need to be proactive.
To facilitate transport on food and bike, you need to make sure that you have the finance to support that.

Buildings, district heating system by using the sewage waste heat to heat up the whole village, which is 6% cheaper than hydro, which is really cheap.
Private automobiles: this needs national government to step in to wrap up public transportation.
South-facing roofs - to put huge solar electric room, great potential.
Every bit of energy we use has to be efficient.
A project "CarbON" is just launched
National government is the largest barrier.
Siemens: When you want to mobilize a deal, you need to put a competition in place. Siemens developed an indicator system to rank cities. Copenhagen and Curitiba. Cities can learn from each other. Heating, mobility - London congestion charge is also an interesting model. Also a good self financing model.

We don't need any outside funding. Building - retrofitting in Germany. Siemens pays for the infrastructure so the city does not have to pay for any upfront costs. 50% goes to Siemens to pay for the costs and 50% goes directly to the cities. Solutions do exist. We know how to do, we just need to figure out how to put the pieces together.

Mayor of Copenhagen - it is time to do things. 2025, first capital city achieving carbon neutral. But we cannot go alone and we need to partner with other partners and institutions. Copenhagen has a good district heating system. We want to get RE into the energy production system. Consumption - it is about buildings, very cold in winter. We insulate our buildings. A lot of good partnership in architectures. Build part of the new city.
Transport is another big piece of it. On bikes 70%, 56% commuters through highways, EVs good for cities, wind power to charge batteries. Invested in hydrogen to develop the technology. If we invest in hydrogen, then we will have a good preparation with private sector to support innovation. This is a good response to financial crisis.

Three short sentences to remember:
1. Solutions are here.
2. It is simple.
3. Just do it.

Energy crisis was so severe back in the 1970s. We simply need to think out of the box. We need some bold moves.

What we achieved in teh 1970s needs to be brought back here today. 60% waste from 90 percent power plants, only 10% employ combined heat and power.

Daniel Ford based in Beijing: every two houses built in the next ten years will be in China.
Xi'an: 5 million dollars funding with China Development Bank
How city plan and capitals - common
Baoding model - is it a low carbon city?

Harry of Philips: half of city energy bill is lighting: street and home, school, etc
