2℃ #6: What the Danes Do Right

2℃ is a show where we talk about how climate change is affecting us today, why our everyday choices matter, and what we can do to mitigate those consequences. In this episode, we take a look at Copenhagen, which is aiming to become the first ever carbon neutral capital by 2025. We take a look at what the Danes are doing right when it comes to being a green city, and what we could learn from them. We speak with His Excellence Mr. Nicolai Ruge, Ambassador of Denmark to Malaysia; as well as Dr. Shureen Faris, senior lecturer at the Faculty of Design & Architecture at UPM, who wrote a book titled Cerita Laman Kehidupan dari Copenhagen about Copenhagen's green solutions and contemporary architecture.
