One Planet Cities

Bioregional is leading a new international 'One Planet Cities' project, funded by the KR Foundation. It is bringing together councils, organisations, businesses, schools and community groups in Canada, Denmark, South Africa and the UK to make their cities better places to live. Working together, these organisations are co-creating locally owned sustainability action plans to generate a route map towards a sustainable future. Bioregional's One Planet Living framework is being used to structure the plans. These ten simple principles – from health and happiness and sustainable food to zero carbon energy – provide a common language to talk about sustainability and to drive change. The project will create an international network of knowledge-sharing designed to accelerate change towards happy and prosperous lives for all within the limits of our one planet.
