City cycling in Bonn
This campaign by the Climate Alliance network is about cycling as many everyday journeys as possible in a climate-friendly way for 21 days. It doesn't matter whether you cycle every day or only occasionally. Every kilometer counts - especially if you would otherwise have traveled by car. It's not just about the journey to university or work, the Sunday morning bread roll ride is also a contribution to climate protection.
Since 2021, the university has consistently been among the top three teams in Bonn, a strong sign of our joint commitment. We are counting on your support again this year: whether you are a student or an employee - join us in pedaling for the climate!
