The Project

COPbyElectricCar is an independent project that relies on Get2C’s expertise and aims to raise public awareness of sustainability, and in particular to alert people to the risks and challenges related to climate change.

COPbyElectricCar will fulfill this ambition by giving the spotlight to electric mobility – which has a decisive role to play in the future of decarbonization – but also by analyzing the impact of our choices and behaviors in everyday life. This project is the kick-off of “Cooler World” and aims to demonstrate the viability of long-distance electric mobility, the real reduction of emissions responsible for global warming, the influence of lifestyles on our carbon footprint and to show that the path to carbon neutrality is possible, necessary and inevitable. The COPbyElectricCar is a demonstration of the path we want to take to achieve a Cooler World. We invite you to travel with us, to walk this path, to share our experiences and feel our emotions.
