Copenhagen: A Beacon of Urban Sustainability
<p>Copenhagen. It’s a city I’ve always wanted to visit but not yet had the opportunity to go to. The colourful buildings lining the sides of canals, the Tivoli Gardens and open squares around the city all add to the attraction and charm of the Danish capital. However, in truth, its the drive for creating a sustainable city that makes me want to visit.</p>

<p>From the wind farms, on- and offshore, that power much of the city to the Amager Bakke waste-to-energy plant that has a ski slope, hiking trail, rock climbing wall on its rooftop, the Danish approach to sustainability fascinates me. The city’s use of technological innovation has put it well on the path to achieve its carbon neutrality goal as well as usher in the beginnings of a return to circularity in the way we consume energy, water and other products.</p>
