On September 26, 2009, over 3,500 traceurs in 37 countries teamed up and called for a world with clean power. In over 217 cities around the globe, professional and amateur traceurs jumped, ran and climbed through the urban landscape and set a new Guinness world record! This great urban acrobatics event, called “One Giant Leap” was organized by environmental action group [Sandbag](http://www.sandbag.org.uk/ogl/) together with pro traceurs from [Parkour Generations](http://www.parkourgenerations.com/news) and the international parkour community. > Sandbag will direct this public support towards the UN meeting taking place in Copenhagen this December – in a bid to JUMP start a climate deal, DROP global power emissions by 10% and ROLL out clean electricity everywhere. > > If included in the next global agreement, the One Giant Leap policy would control and reduce a third of all global carbon emissions - only 3,300 power stations around the world account for this huge source of emissions. (press release) Keep it up! ![parkour urban event]() parkour urban event Via [environmentalgraffiti.com](http://www.environmentalgraffiti.com/featured/pictures-largest-free-running-jam/16293).
