Promote cycling and raise awareness about the impacts of climate change

Our mission is to organize cycling events to promote cycling and raise awareness about the impacts of climate change, particularly on coastal areas.

Our Goals

• Raise awareness about climate change.
• Promote cycling as a mode of transportation.

Our History

The first “Cycling for Climate” event was organized in 2020 in the Netherlands: a bike ride to raise awareness about the urgency of climate change, symbolically along the potential future coastline reshaped by rising sea levels.

In 2022, a small group of cyclists brought the idea to France and rode 300 km between Brest and Mont Saint-Michel. In 2023, the C4C-France association was established, and the “Cyclo for Climate” event was held again in Saint-Malo. In the following years, the concept spread to Villeurbanne, Angers, Saint-Malo, Toulouse, and Paris this year.

• Step 1 - My Carbon
  Footprint It starts with understanding your own footprint. So take a look at the Nos Gestes Climat website. It’s perfect for getting an overview of your current footprint.
  And more importantly, you’ll also immediately discover where to start if you want to effectively begin reducing your footprint.

• Step 2 - My Climate
  Pledge With your Climate Pledge, you’ll reduce your carbon footprint. And maybe even that of your friends or family!
  You can fill out your Climate Pledge on the registration form.
  Examples of climate pledges: Ride a bike instead of driving, unplug your appliances when they’re on standby, take showers no longer than 2 minutes for a month, insulate your attic, take a bike or train instead of a plane for your next vacation…
