Conditions for cycling around Czech towns and cities are not very well developed. We are planning to establish cooperation with municipal government to improve this situation. Bike stands installed around the buildings of the university, together with facilities for service would be very helpful for cyclists. At some universities where students have to travel between different faculties, bike rental system should be developed together with bicycle paths connecting faculties and libraries. | Conditions for cycling around Czech towns and cities are not very well developed.

In addition to bike mobility, we are also planning to promote public transport, since there is not possibility for everybody to travel just by bike. Public transport significantly reduces emissions and environmental impacts in comparison with private vehicles | In addition to bike mobility, we are also planning to promote public transport, since there is not possibility for everybody to travel just by bike.

Apart from mobility question, green university should also cope with other issues, such as waste management, procurement, food consumption, heating or electricity. As we have already mentioned, heating and electricity matters appear to be quite difficult for the starting phase of the project. At the beginning, we will start with campaigns for electricity savings, because they can be easily achieved by the change of students´ behaviour. That´s why we are planning to attach posters next to light switchers. | Apart from mobility question, green university should also cope with other issues, such as waste management, procurement, food consumption, heating or electricity.
