Interesting discussion at Leaders’ Roundtable 1 on why biodiversity is also a security issue. 🌿 1.6 billion people depend on forests for food or fuel, while global demand for freshwater could exceed sustainable supplies by 40% by 2030.

Protecting nature means protecting our future. 🌿 Healthy ecosystems support our economies, our food and water security, and our ability to face climate change. At COP17, we need to turn commitments into action and investment, for people, for nature and for the next generations.🌍

A very warm welcome to Yerevan for the COP17 Leaders’ Summit! 🌿 A pleasure to be in Armenia with UN Secretary-General António Guterres, Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan, and leaders from around the world, united by one shared responsibility: protecting nature and biodiversity.

Europe’s next move? Believe in our capacity, and enact the policies we need. Very happy to join Europe’s Next Power Move today. Europe’s best days are ahead us. We have the talent, the tools and the opportunity to invest in our future. Let’s use them!

Reliable information matters, especially when it comes to our health. Today’s decision on Sanofi helps ensure that doctors, pharmacists and patients can trust the information they receive about flu vaccines. Competition must be based on the merits of the products.

Very good discussion today with STRING on the role of megaregions in Europe. They show something important: Europe does not only move from the top down. It also moves from the ground up. Across borders, regions are already working together on energy, connectivity and resilience. 🇪🇺

At today’s @projectsyndicate.bsky.social conversation, one figure: 100 billion euros. That's what Europe paid in six months of the conflict in Iran in additional fossil-fuel costs. No more energy. No more investment. Just higher price for dependency in a world where any dependency can be weaponised.

Teresa Ribera @teresaribera.ec.europa.eu · 07/10/2026

Good meeting with Fatih Birol today in Paris. Electrification is key to Europe's affordable energy security. Clean home grown energy reduces our vulnerability and dependency on imported fossil fuels. It is a key driver for competitiveness and innovation. An inspiring piece of the European building!

Teresa Ribera @teresaribera.ec.europa.eu · 07/10/2026

Great to meet again @bcoeure.bsky.social to exchange on competition challenges, including the impact of the growing demand of energy for data centres.

🧠A great way to round off my visit to Barcelona with a visit to the Barcelona Supercomputing Center. 💿Science, data and innovation are essential to better understand the risks ahead, strengthen our resilience and prepare for a changing climate.

Teresa Ribera @teresaribera.ec.europa.eu · 05/10/2026

🔬 I also had the opportunity to visit the new Global Sustainability Hub at @ub.edu on its opening day. At a time of uncertainty and disinformation, defending knowledge is more important than ever. Universities and public institutions must be natural allies working together to improve our societies.

Teresa Ribera @teresaribera.ec.europa.eu · 05/10/2026

⛽ Our dependence on fossil fuels is not only a climate issue: it also affects our security, our competitiveness and our daily lives. Every euro we spend on imported fossil fuels is a euro we do not invest in innovation, jobs or public services. Read the full speech here: ec.europa.eu/commission/p...

Teresa Ribera @teresaribera.ec.europa.eu · 05/10/2026

It has been a privilege to open the academic year at @ub.edu today and reflect on some of the main challenges of Europe. 🌍As the impacts of climate change become increasingly extreme, we need more knowledge, a greater capacity to anticipate risks, and decisions that match the scale of the challenge.

Teresa Ribera @teresaribera.ec.europa.eu · 01/10/2026

At @feps-europe.eu, excellent discussion with Sandrine Dixson-Declève and Dave Keating about sustainable European sovereignty. When we talk about the cost of living, jobs and security, my answer is simple: 👉🏼 Green means good business, affordability, inclusiveness and security.

Teresa Ribera @teresaribera.ec.europa.eu · 29/09/2026

Climate change is already reshaping our lives, our economies, and our security. Europe is warming twice as fast as the global average. 👉🏼Our priority is clear: cut emissions and build resilience. Preparing for the impacts that are already here is essential.

That was my message today at the COP31, IEA and UN High Level Energy Transition Dialogue at #UNGA. 🙏Thank you to the #COP31 Presidency for its leadership and for co leading #ElectrifyNow.

Teresa Ribera @teresaribera.ec.europa.eu · 23/09/2026

And the benefits are clear: more energy security, lower costs for households and faster climate action. The latest #IEA report shows that accelerating electrification could save $400 billion in fossil fuel imports by 2035. Now we need to turn this opportunity into reality.

Teresa Ribera @teresaribera.ec.europa.eu · 23/09/2026

⚡️ EU supports global 35% electrification by 2035. And in Europe we count on reaching 46% by 2040. Through Gobal Gateway we gather the support of public and private European investment to match with electrification.

What will it take to unlock large investments in Europe’s clean energy and clean tech ambitions? That was the question at the heart of the roundtable hosted by @Bloomberg where I participated together with Nadia Calviño, President of the European Investment Bank, in New York.

Teresa Ribera @teresaribera.ec.europa.eu · 22/09/2026

I wrapped up my US mission with a conversation on Bloomberg TV, reflecting on some of the key issues at the heart of my visit: 🌍 The importance of multilateralism and cooperation for peace. 🤖 The need for common approaches to AI as this technology transforms our economies and societies.

Teresa Ribera @teresaribera.ec.europa.eu · 22/09/2026

The clean energy transition is a global economic opportunity. Turning it into growth, competitiveness and jobs will requires more private investment. Today, I joined Nadia Calviño, Mike Bloomberg and Mary Schapiro to discuss how we can unlock more capital for clean energy and clean tech.

Really inspiring to join Women Leading on Climate today in New York, bringing together women working across politics, business and civil society to keep climate action moving. When the political environment gets harder, these alliances matter more than ever. Let’s keep fighting together. 💚🌍

Some important exchanges today at the UN. 🇦🇲 I met Armenia’s Environment Minister Hambardzum Matevosyan ahead of COP17 on Biodiversity in Yerevan. Our focus: turning ambition into implementation, mobilising investment and accelerating delivery of our biodiversity commitments by 2030.

Teresa Ribera @teresaribera.ec.europa.eu · 21/09/2026

💻 That is why today the Commission is introducing a common EU rating scheme for data centres. We are strengthening transparency: making their actual use of energy and water visible, so we can compare performance, learn from the most efficient solutions and better understand the sector’s impact.

Teresa Ribera @teresaribera.ec.europa.eu · 21/09/2026

🇪🇺🇹🇷We strongly support the Turkish #COP31 Presidency’s call to raise the global share of electricity in final energy consumption to 35% by 2035, while remaining firmly committed to tripling global renewable energy capacity by 2030.

Teresa Ribera @teresaribera.ec.europa.eu · 21/09/2026

🇪🇺That is why Europe is calling on more countries to join the #ElectrifyNow coalition and accelerate the shift to clean electricity.

⚡️🌱At the Global Renewables Summit in New York, one message was clear: we need to electrify faster, and power that electrification with clean energy. 🌎The current situation in the Middle East is another stark reminder of the cost of fossil fuel dependency. Renewables are not only about climate.

With Selwin Hart, Special Adviser to the UN Secretary-General on Climate Action, we discussed the road to COP31 &CBD COP15, and how to turn climate ambition into implementation. Climate action requires investment, partnerships and delivery but above all it requires strong multilateral cooperation.

Teresa Ribera @teresaribera.ec.europa.eu · 20/09/2026

Two valuable exchanges today in New York on what comes next for global climate action. 🌍 With UN Deputy Secretary General Amina Mohammed, we discussed on hoe to strengthen sustainable development, food security, and climate action moving when international cooperation is under growing strain.
