In our 30^th year of practice in Bristol we are both supporting and taking part in Le COP Crusade - Bike Ride to Paris.  We are doing this to demonstrate our commitment as a company and as part of the Bristol business community to taking local action on climate change and delivering a clear message to global leaders. The project is being hosted by ‘Love the Future’, a not for profit community interest company which previously operated under the title ‘Big Green Week.’

The Challenge

Landmark Planner Rachel Bird is part of the team that will be delivering the Bristol Manifesto for Change to Paris on her bicycle. The team is made up of businesses and individuals from across the city.  The ride will span 4 days and cover over 240 miles, crossing over the channel at Portsmouth.  

Why cycle - COP21

We are now just a month away from the Paris climate summit, or to give it its formal title, the 21st Session of the Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (COP21).  From November 30 to December 11, nations will meet to agree a global climate deal in Paris.  

As the 2015 European Green Capital, Bristol has a key role to play. Bristol City Council and Bristol 2015 will, with the city of Paris, be co-hosting the COP21, ‘cities lounge’ in the Cities & Regions Pavilion, which is part of the International Local Government Climate Roadmap to Paris.  At Landmark we want to show our support for the city and demonstrate that the people and businesses of Bristol really care about climate change, adding our voices to the millions around the world.  

Please give your support

As well as supporting Bristol at COP21, we want to do more. We are therefore inviting colleagues friends and clients to sponsor Rachel's cycle ride by donating to Re-Cycle.
