It's time to get together again on the 11th of April at 8 o’clock for the first Bølgenfrokost of 2025! Can you imagine a better way to start a morning than enjoying a delicious breakfast and coffee while learning something new and exciting about sustainability?
In collaboration with UiA, Bølgen bærekraftsenter warmly welcomes FORTHEM Green Travel Road Show and Dr. Baumeister to talk about sustainable and low-emission travel across Europe. As part of this initiative, Dr. Baumeister will travel over 15,000 km through 18 countries, visiting each FORTHEM university using only sustainable transport modes to demonstrate that low-carbon travel is possible. Despite the long journey, he has kindly agreed to share his experiences and expertise on the topic at Bølgen bærekraftsenter!
The Green Travel Road Show aims to:
-
Raise awareness about sustainable travel options for students and staff.
-
Encourage more people to choose environmentally friendly transport when studying or working abroad.
-
Collect research data on the challenges and barriers of Green Travel to help shape future policies.
-
Provide practical guidance on planning and funding Green Travel, including information about Erasmus+ financial support for sustainable mobility.
During this Bølgenfrokost, Dr. Baumeister will talk about:
-
The impact of air travel on the environment and why sustainable alternatives matter.
-
Real-world examples of successful Green Travel experiences.
-
How students and staff can plan eco-friendly trips while saving costs.
-
Insights from Dr. Baumeister’s own 30-day train journey across Europe, visiting 18 countries!
-
Information on financial support for Green Travel through Erasmus+.
This is the perfect opportunity to learn from someone with hands-on experience in green travelling, ask intriguing questions, and have fascinating conversations about the topic with other like-minded people. Best of all, we can all make a difference and travel more sustainably. So these new ideas won't go to waste!
Remember to set your alarm clock early on the 11th of April and join us at 8 o’clock at Bølgen bærekraftsenter’s 4th floor. This is a breakfast you won't soon forget!
