Sharing experience for a greener future, local communities for sustainable energy in Europe (short version)

"It's all about BELIEF- believing someone you know" - the EU's vision of a secure, safe and clean energy for the future cannot be reached without local leadership and action "on the ground". A new video report looking at Heidelberg (Germany) and Dunkirk (France) shows how these cities run successful public communication campaigns to encourage their citizens to play their part in sustainable energy use. They stand for more than 20 cities from 11 European countries taking part in BELIEF, a project supported by the EUÂ’s Intelligent Energy – Europe Programme. The video will be presented to the public during the project's final conference in Cork, Ireland, on 9 April 2008. Interviews: Dr. Eckart Würzner, Mayor of Heidelberg Frédérick Mabille, Director of Energy, Urban Community of Dunkirk Marc Ducrocq, General Manager, Ibis Hotel, Dunkirk Marlene Bohne-Becker, Headmistress, Albert-Schweitzer-Schule Rudolf Frühauf, Mona's father Thomas BECK, General manager , FELS
