Green emergency

The climate crisis is one of the most serious challenges we face in the 21st century.

Drastic action and enormous investment will be required merely to mitigate its full impact.

We must steer our industries towards sustainable and renewable production.

We will implement taxes on carbon as well as plastics and penalise single-use products and non-recyclables.

We will also end fossil fuel subsidies. These revenues will fund smart energy grids and mobility systems throughout the EU.

Because sustainability begins at home, we will foster proximity farming, achieving the double benefit of bolstering both local economies and biodiversity.
