THE CO2 E - RACE PHOTOGRAPHY PROJECT
December 13th 2009, along the CO2 route

On the 13th of December, there will besides the CO2 painting, be a photography project for anyone to join. The concept is to "geotag" the CO2 route through Copenhagen with images of the CO2 friendly cars by uploading them to Google Maps or Earth. See the first set of images uploaded by Michael Wolffhechel below.


View CO2 E - Race Copenhagen in a larger map

It is a way to gather many people, images and intentions for climate awareness by creating a huge CO2 tag over Copenhagen with images of Electric Cars. This will also give the illusion that Copenhagen is filled with Electric Cars, as the vision of the CO2 E - Race is working on.


After the whole CO2 painting, the GPS devices will be delivered to the Green Vision Crew by Hans Christian Andersen's Palace.


The CO2 route goes by classic Copenhagen visual wonders.

The cars will pass by The Governments Museum of Art as part of the "2" in the CO2 route.

The "C" starts at Forum and the Bright Green exhibition


The cars will go over Queen Louise's Bridge, going down Nørrebrogade towards Nørreport Station.
