The CO2 Foundation supports non-profit organizations nationwide that advance the transport transition with bold, disruptive, and creative approaches. Funding applications can be submitted at any time, allowing initiatives to respond flexibly to local conditions.

The focus is on projects, campaigns, and citizen initiatives that achieve tangible progress in climate protection and mobility transition through innovative ideas and disruptive impulses.
