Sustainable DevelopmentAs I'm going to present at the conference I decided to try to go there in a sustainable way. My diesel motorbike passed the first tests running longer journeys and I began the conversion to vegetable oil. unfortunately some spare parts and a bit of know how is still lacking. So I developed the following project:
Traveling to the conference using vegetable oil (via Genua - ferry to Tanger) and visiting and promoting as many Renewable Energy Projects as possible on my way. The CO2 savings, the example of practiced environmental protection, and the promotion of sustainable energy techniques plus the fun of driving are worth the efforts anyway.
The latest news are published in my blog on:
http://www.movegreen.de/aktuelles/blogs.html or http://arnos-weg.blog.de/
I'm looking for:
Ideas
Sponsors
Renewable Energy Projects to Visit
Press Contacts

An ideal place to publicize your planned tour would be The Forum on Science and Innovation for Sustainable Development, an attempt to outline the burgeoning field. Rather than looking broadly at sustainability, the Forum focuses on the way in which science and innovation can be conducted and applied to meet human needs while preserving the life support systems of the planet. It highlights people and programs that are studying nature-society interactions and applying the resulting knowledge to create a sustainability transition around the world. http://sustsci.aaas.org/ Contact the Editor Sarah Mills at smills@aaas.org

Its been a longer pause since the last entry, but not because there was nothing to tell but because I have been to occupied to write my blog. But good news with greenBull (www.greenbull.at) I found a qualified band dedicated partner who guarantees the vegetal oil conversion. And the enterprises Louis and Immler tyres too give a helpful contribution to the success of the whole project. . and I put a short Project description on my homeoage: http://www.geen-ideas.eu/ Best regards Arno Deuker

A lot of organization in the background now is beneficial: the project is officially recognized as partner in the EU Commissions Susternergy (http://www.sustenergy.org/) program. The oficial start of the journey will be at the Hessen renewable energy fair (http://www.energietage.com/) at Wetzlar October, 31 at 15:00. Another presentation at the Hohenheim University (Stuttgart) Nov. 2nd 18:00 is fixed. In the journey planning (http://www.green-ideas.eu/way/Reiseroute.html) you can find other events. general information on: http://www.green-ideas.eu/en-Agadir.html Thank you for your support Arno Deuker
