What makes the building truly unique is that it is the first "EcoCommercial Building" to be developed by Bayer and its partners in Europe. That means that the building will be run on an entirely climate-neutral basis. It will meet its own energy needs, without generating any emissions.

The GYG brought together 20 active environmental youth leaders from around the world, including the Tunza Youth Advisory Council and regional and indigenous representatives. The participants increased their knowledge on the role of youth in environmental governance, and developed a youth statement on the environment that they presented to the GC/GMEF. The 2nd Tunza Strategy for 2009-2014 was adopted in the GC/GMEF, and the youth leaders suggested ways for its implementation that will strengthen UNEP's work with young people. More information and documentation of the GYG can be found at http://www.unep.org/tunza/youth/Conferences_Events/GYG_2009.asp. We hope you enjoyed this newsletter.
