Resource Wisdom Programme

One of the main objectives of the City of Kuopio strategy is to make Kuopio a climate and resource wise city. Diverse nature and a clean environment are what make Kuopio a great place to live. We must manage the strain that urban growth places on the environment and commit to ambitious climate and resource wisdom objectives. We want to be carbon neutral in 2030 and become a pioneer in circular economy.
