Stockholm - European Green Capital 2010

During 2010 Stockholm is the first city to be European Green Capital awarded by the European Commission. Stockholm is a forerunner in environemental issues, like that the City has cut carbon dioxide emissions by 25 per cent per inhabitant since 1990. But it is also true that Stockholm has more green areas close to the city centre than most capital cities. You can easily reach big forests by the metro and comuter trains. To this you have to add all the water that surrounds the city. On our multi-activities tours you can try out different aspects of this Green Capital.
