Copenhagen, Denmark The city lies on the eastern shore of the island of Sjaelland, or Zealand, at the southern end of ¯resund (The Sound), the waterway that separates Denmark from Sweden and links the Baltic with the North Sea. Among these is the Tivoli, in the heart of the city to the southwest of the old town, a highly sophisticated amusement park laid out in 1843.

Green Left - The bridge that divides One of the main objections to the bridge is the state of the Baltic. Although pylons for the bridge would probably have a negligible impact on the critical flow of well-oxygenated water from the North Sea, the likely ecological damage due to disturbance to the sea floor is a serious consideration. Some economists have argued that the bridge is a bad investment on the grounds that car traffic with Europe is likely to decrease in the medium to long term as private automotive costs rise. www.greenleft.org.au /1993/92/4409   (802 words)

[Newsletter] Bankwatch Mail 29 – CEE Bankwatch Network For an island of 40,000 inhabitants and its visitors, a bridge – potentially to be completed by 2012 – would mean a shorter travel time but both the environmental and financial costs involved are far too big to give the project the go-ahead. During the migration period more than 2 million birds fly over the Suur Strait and, unlike the well-known Öresund bridge between Sweden and Denmark, the Saaremaa bridge would be a serious obstacle with a positioning that cuts across the bird migration route. As visibility is often bad during the migration season due to low clouds and fog, the bridge might pose a significant threat for birds, especially in darkness. www.bankwatch.org /publications/mail.shtml?x=1901882   (6121 words)

i think not Back over the bridge, fuming and hungry and tired, we finally boarded a train that looked right, transferred to a driver-less subway car swarming with some unruly Danish children, and finally arrived at Kongens Nytorv, the biggest city square in Copenhagen.
