Project Blue Sky (PBS) was inspired by athletes and built by students as a way to motivate individuals and groups to take steps in their personal lives to fight climate change through increased physical activity and sustainable travel. The project is supported by the Official Carbon Offset Supplier to the 2010 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games, Offsetters Clean Technology Inc. and the Vancouver 2010 Organizing Committee (VANOC).
In the final lead up to the hosting of the 2010 Games, PBS aims to capture the imagination of individuals that have an interest in environmental issues, and have them track and capture their individual carbon reducing activity. The overall objective is to mobilize Olympic and Paralympic athletes to take a leadership role and encourage people and groups from around the world to take action to reduce their carbon footprint by registering 1 billion kilometres of carbon reducing activity between now and the end of the Paralympic Games.
The City of Surrey is proud to support this venture. Check it out, sign up and get moving! For more information, please click here.
