In total, UPJ\u0160 employees travelled almost 6,982 kilometers by alternative transport. UPJ\u0160 thus saved 1,613 kg of CO2 in the month of June. The participants made 687 trips on their bicycles and covered approximately 3,327 km. Public transport came in second place with UPJ\u0160 cyclists travelling to work a total of 342 times and covering 2,039 km. They walked to work a total of 791 times and covered a total of 1,612 km. UPJ\u0160 in Ko\u0161ice ranked 45th in the national ranking in the number of cycling trips, kilometers travelled, and carbon dioxide saved. In the categories of public transport and walking, we ranked 16th out of all registered companies, institutions, and organizations. Out of 11 participating Slovak universities, UPJ\u0160 took second place in all three categories.<\/mark> <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Several cities have joined the campaign to promote cycling, and the increased intensity of bicycle use during the competition has lightened the burden on car traffic. UPJ\u0160 regularly engages in events promoting ecomobility in line with the global Race to Zero strategy adopted by the university&#8217;s leadership with a commitment to permanently reduce its carbon footprint and take measures that delay climate change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The final evaluation of the UPJ\u0160 competition and the awarding of prizes to the participants took place on July 20, 2023, at the Minerva Building at Moyzesova 9 in Ko\u0161ice. The Quaestor of UPJ\u0160, RNDr. Ing. Michal Tk\u00e1\u010d, PhD, appreciated the initiative of the employees and presented the prizes for the best performances within the competition: <em>&#8220;Every year, through our joint efforts, we increase the total number of kilometers, trips and actual kilograms of saved carbon dioxide that we would normally burn when using passenger cars. I am pleased to see that employees are engaging primarily out of their own conviction and desire to do something for themselves, their health, but also for the environment, and I hope that they will continue to use alternative ways of commuting to work outside of the competition.&#8221;<\/em> At the end of the meeting, there was a discussion about the planned bicycle tours for UPJ\u0160 employees, additional bicycle shelters that will be placed on the individual campuses of the university, as well as new bicycle paths in the city of Ko\u0161ice and its surroundings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-zakladna-modra-color\">\u27a4<\/mark> <a aria-label=\"How we did in numbers (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.upjs.sk\/app\/uploads\/2023\/07\/DPNB-2023-UPJS-vyhodnotenie-en.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" class=\"ek-link\"><strong><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-zakladna-zlata-color\">How we did in numbers<\/mark><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-zakladna-modra-color\">\u27a4<\/mark> <strong><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-zakladna-zlata-color\">For more information on the 2023 Bike to Work campaign, visit <a aria-label=\"https:\/\/www.dopracenabicykli.eu (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dopracenabicykli.eu\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" class=\"ek-link\">https:\/\/www.dopracenabicykli.eu<\/a><\/mark><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>We thank you for joining the campaign and wish you many happy CO2-free kilometers<\/em>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A total of 19 teams and 65 individuals from the University of Pavol Jozef \u0160af\u00e1rik in Ko\u0161ice (UPJ\u0160) took part in the 2023 BtW challenge.
