greentomato

Some more transport pics from COP15

1) It’s true, we really did go to Copenhagen. Here’s a greentomatocar by one of the many picturesque Danish canals. We tried to take it into the main conference centre, but some men with guns told us to go away.

2) As far as we could work out, this bicycle isn’t all that special in itself. However, it is part of the Perpignan bicycle scheme, one of many sprouting up throughout Europe. London’s very own scheme is up next, courtesy of our blonde bombshell, Boris.

3) And the boys in blue are keen not to be put in the shade - or is this just an example of Boris imposing his political will on the Met?

4) The Renault Twizy takes the prize for most unlikely car to be made…

5) The Fluence by Renault is much more “sensible”. This version is a fairly standard lithium ion conversion, but in future these vehicles will be the workhorse of the Project Better Place battery replacement networks.

6) As mentioned Project Better Place was at the conference, showing off the exciting vision they have for private car infrastructure. Their pilot in Denmark is already underway with charging points like these all over Copenhagen.
