CO2 Pacman

🌍 We are excited to announce that Uradio, Siena Webradio is taking part at the 2nd Rooting Labs in Crete in the framework of the groundbreaking CO2 Pacman project, funded by the Interreg Euro Med program. This innovative initiative, spearheaded by the University of Siena, is focused on developing forward-thinking decarbonisation strategies for Mediterranean islands, aiming to combat climate change and promote sustainability in some of the world’s most beautiful and vulnerable regions. 🍃 As an associate partner, we are taking an active role in engaging local communities through a series of creative workshops, open discussions, and collaborative sessions. Our goal is to hear directly from the people most affected, exploring their views on sustainability, climate action, and how we can work together to build a greener future. This is just the beginning of an inspiring journey, and we are eager to share more insights and discoveries as the project unfolds over the coming days. 🌟 Stay tuned for updates! #CO2Pacman #RootingLabs #ClimateNeutrality #Youth #rootinglabcrete #Crete #vr #uRadio Interreg Euro-MED Programme EPLO European Public Law Organization - Green Industry, Innovations and Technology Transfer Foundation Splitsko-dalmatinska županija Ecodynamics Group CEEI Valencia (Centro Europeo de Empresas e Innovación de Valencia) Renewable & Sustainable Energy Laboratory, TU Crete SDEWES Centre Geoimaging Ltd
