This leads to a negative cycle: the citizens significantly during the last few years. It is clear that and public bodies have a lower budget at hand it will remain high (and continue to increase) in the while at the same time the costs are rising, despite medium and long term. A possibility of absorbing the lower demand. This combined with the flow of rising costs is to critically question the status quo of money out of regions because of the centralized energy consumption in order to use existing local (fossil fuel) energy supply, and the fact that the energy saving and production potential. Rising potential for the transition towards renewable energy costs and declining budgets contribute to energy is mainly based in local projects, means steadily increasing financial pressure for public there’s need for sustainable energy planning on a utilities.

    THE NATIONAL CLIMATE CONFERENCE 18TH + 19TH AUGUST 2021 Will the COVID-19 pandemic teach us how to deal with the climate crisis? ”The pandemic, the climate crisis and the biodiversity crisis are all signs that we as humans do not adapt to our sur- roundings, but believe, that we can get nature to fit into our needs. Our recent loss of control with nature should make us more humble”. (Andreas Lloyd, Information, 2021) THE CORE MESSAGE FOR THE CONFERENCE Will the COVID-19 crisis show us how to deal with the climate crisis? ”That crises and disasters constitute opportunities for societal learning and innovation is a historically well-known phenomenon. It took place after the Second World War, after the oil crises in the 1970s, the Chernobyl accident in 1986, the Katrina flood disaster in New Orleans in 2005, and after the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear and tsunami disaster in Japan in 2011. There is reason to work so that the COVID-19 crisis can similarly become a starting point for learning in relation to dealing with the more extensive climate crisis. ” MC-couple (Climate and Adjustment Council, 2020).

During the pandemic, there has been both economic and popular support for major societal changes.

The national bicycle strategy 4.| Denmark - on your bike! Denmark - on your bike! Published by: Ministry of Transport Frederiksholms Kanal 27F 1220 Copenhagen K Prepared by: Ministry of Transport ISBN internet version: 978-87-91511-93-6 Frontpage image: Danish Road Directorate Niclas Jessen, Panorama Ulrik Jantzen FOREWORD | 5v Foreword Denmark has a long tradition for cycling and that makes us somewhat unique in the world. We must retain our strong cycling culture and pass it on to our children so they can get the same pleasure of moving through traf- fic on a bicycle. Unfortunately, we cycle less today than we did previously. It is quite normal for Danes to get behind the wheel of the car, even for short trips. It is com- fortable and convenient in our busy daily lives. If we are to succeed in en- couraging more people to use their bicycles, therefore, we must make it more attractive and thus easier to cycle to work, school and on leisure trips. We can achieve this by, for example, creating better cycle paths, fewer stops, secure bicycle parking spaces and new cycling facilities. In the government, we are working for a green transition and we want to promote cycling, because cycling is an inexpensive, healthy and clean form of transport. The state has never before done as much in this regard as we are doing at present.
