COP15--- What’s next?

Bass participation at COP15 concluded on day 18/12, when Bella Centre closed its doors, Bass/Un HABITAT stand closed down and the Climate Factory’s Science-on-a-Sphere ® was promptly dismantled, starting the way down to its new “home” on Lolland. From Bass perspective, COP15 has been a very interesting event, where we have had the confirmation of the relevance and meaningful evidence of our mission –sustainability. It was incredible to experience the buzz and commitment of nearly 40,000 participants accompanying country delegations and press representatives, all of them making their way to Copenhagen ( at their own expense and from far away countries) just to voice their concern for our planet and its natural resources.  Many would have expected a more ambitious agreement than the Copenhagen Accord, but in the end, the positive side of it is that environment and climate are now on the concrete agenda of many countries, and much work will need to be done in 2010 and following years.

We at Bass are confident we are heading in the right direction, with innovative projects already ongoing and new exciting ones coming in the next months. We are confident we are working with solid prospects and delivering meaningful results, inspired also by the recognition of our work we gratefully received at our stands in Bella Centre by colleagues from all over the world. We are certainly confident that our efforts and those of our partners represent small, but serious contributions to address climate change and resource degradation. So, what’s next? 2010 will certainly be a very hectic year at Bass, above all, because it will witness the opening of the Climate Factory in Holeby, Lolland´s new “meeting point” for research, technology, education and entrepreneurship in the field of climate and sustainability. We are looking forward to the new opportunities and challenges we will face in 2010 and we hope for new stimulating activities and interesting collaborations! Happy New Year! Bass team

Bass is also present on the UN Habitat stand, where Anders Riel Müller is exhibiting (LGDK) Local Government Denmark's ClimateActionMap - a global, web-based map that visualised climate and energy initiatives that have been made at home and abroad. The map was produced by Bass for LGDK and municipalities and regions worldwide are able to upload their climate goals and initiatives free of charge once registered.
