Vienna Climate Tour 2025: Circular economy in the focus of the city!
Donaustadt, Österreich - This year's climate tour in Vienna is all about the circular economy. The tour was launched today under the motto "circular economy" and begins at the 48-seater in Donaustadt. Climate Councilor Jürgen Czernohorszky opened the event and emphasized the importance of sustainable consumption and the appreciation of everyday objects in order to counteract disposable mentality. The initiative is intended to help raise awareness of the importance of recycling and avoid disposable products.
The tandler locations in Donaustadt and Margareten, which act as the forward models for circular economy, are particularly noteworthy. These locations support the old goods logistics in the 48-seater, which serves as a central turntable for old goods. Three trucks are used there every day to collect, sort and prepare functional old goods. Tandler II in Percostraße 2 offers a variety of tested electrical appliances, clothing, books, dishes, LPs, CDs and musical instruments. Electrical devices, for example, are sold with one year of warranty after a professional review.promotion of e-mobility and sustainability
The Viennese climate tour 2025 uses a fleet of eight e-cargo bikes that tour through the city. This mobile platform will provide information about topics such as recycling, repair and sustainable consumption. The city of Vienna has reduced the energy consumption per capita by 33.7 percent since 2005 and increasingly relies on e-mobility and environmentally friendly materials on this tour. The missions are carried out in public places, in parks and during various events in the city.
As part of the EU strategy for promoting the circular economy, the need for sustainable procurement of raw materials is also discussed. The Covid 19 pandemic had heavily burdened the production processes. In order to reduce the dependence of the EU on a few third countries, a law on critical raw materials was passed in December 2023. The new strategy supports initiatives against planned obsolescence and aims to improve the durability and repair of products. Consumer rights are strengthened by the right to repair, which is an important measure to promote the circular economy.
Future vision of the circular economy
A central component of the EU strategy is the introduction of digital product passes that should provide relevant information along the product life cycle. This measure is intended to help consumers make informed decisions and thus increase the sustainability of the products. The Viennese climate schedule is used as a guide during the climate tour to involve the citizens even more in the topics of environmental protection and resource conservation.
For more information on the climate tour, the details on the official website of the city of Vienna are available, the interested citizens offer the opportunity to find out more about the various stations and topics of the tour. It is planned that the tour will still leave a sustainable impression and the way for a more responsible use of resources.
