🚨 ETS Alert 🚨 ➡️ The Commission’s choice is to propose heavy weakening of the ETS, shaped by lobbying from incumbent industries & undermining the EU’s climate, industrial transformation and energy security objectives. ❌ This is not OK. We call for a course correction in the upcoming negotiations.

⚠️ The EU-US Trade Deal serves US interests only. It deepens Europe’s fossil fuel dependency, and is detrimental for its energy security, energy prices and climate goals. Read CAN Europe’s reaction to today’s vote in the International Trade EP Committee 👇 🧵 1/2

✅ At home, EU leaders must not forget lessons learned from past fossil crises: Targeted, temporary support to protect the most vulnerable, reducing the fossil fuel demand & accelerating energy transition. 🕊️ Internationally, the EU & its members must engage in united diplomacy to stop the war.

❌ Deregulation is not a solution for Europe's competitiveness problem. 💡 European industry's pressure does not come from the climate laws, but from high energy costs, fierce global competition and its own inaction.

True leadership means showing up, from day one, for the whole package of #COP30 justice outcomes and not hiding behind trade-offs. So far, EU has not shown this true leadership. The EU must step up its game to become the climate leader it claims to be. The clock is ticking, but it is not too late.

Green Cycle Evolution Foundation engagement with women market workers in Nima, Ghana, on the effect of illegal mining and advocacy on environmental protection through a mural painting for Draw the Line.

A Draw the Line event by Climate Clock was held at Cimbumbiro, near Bukavu city, Democratic Republic of Congo.  The event aimed to educate local sellers about the provision of charcoal derived from fossil fuels and the felling of trees in Kahuzi-Biega park. Participants were encouraged to adopt renewable energy sources and ecological charcoal for household and daily activities. The initiative hopes to engage several local women in the use of renewable energy.
